Coffee Day 17th May 2010

What a fabulous day shared with our visitors from the Organ Society of NZ Inc. - lots of good music, good company, good eats and wonderful weather - what more could one wish for! We managed to enjoy listening to 18 of our joint Club members playing a variety of instruments, namely: The Club's Clavinova; the Club's Technics GA3 organ; and two Korg keyboards.


A vote of thanks was offered to the North Shore Organ and Keyboard Committee for organizing such a lovely day by Rob Powell, President of the Organ Society of New Zealand Inc. A very special thank must go to Committee member for the NSOKC, Delyse Whorwood, for making up the lovely food hamper for the Raffle first prize and preparing a lot of the food for lunch.

Hover your mouse over the photos to see the names of the players.
