Notes:
The pavilion rental includes park entry. Print a "free pass" (above) or tell the ranger at the gate that you're with the uke group, and you won't have to pay the $5 entry fee! John will make sure they have one of the flyers and know what is going on.
We're going to have a raffle! So far, we have a Gold Tone banjolele, and a gift certificate from The Fret Shop, and we're just getting started! Everyone gets a ticket and more will be sold for $1 to help with event costs.
