We enjoyed all of the entertainment
My husband and I attended this years soiree for the first time. We drove from Brick New Jersey, which was a five hour ride. We were very pleasantly surprised how well organized and well attended it was. We enjoyed all of the entertainment! So fun.
Wonderful event for any level!
I am a newbie to Ukulele. I decided to attend just to see what it was all about and to see if I could pick up anything. What a blast! Friendly and helpful people were everywhere. The event was extremely well organized with a great selection of instructors and vendors. 2024 dates are already on my calendar. Wonderful event for any level!
