Coffee Day 15th February 2010

What a lovely summer's day sharing Pam and John Rea's lovely home in Orewa. About 16 members attended the Coffee Day and were treated to some great music and great eats. Pam's FS30 Yamaha organ got a good work-out as did her Korg Pa80 keyboard. For the pianists, we were kindly provided with a Korg Pa2X Pro 77 note state-of-the-art keyboard courtesy of Orewa Music, Moana Place, Orewa. Thanks Pam and John for making us so welcome and enjoying your lovely home and beautiful gardens.
