Coffee Day at the Club 15th May 2011

Something different this month for our Coffee Day, instead of holding the event at a member's home we held it at our Club Rooms so that our instruments could be made use of. We set the room up cabaret style with the coffee and tea freely available when desired on a side table (together with a delectable cheese board and bikkies - thanks Delyse Whorwood for organizing the refreshments so well). As well as our lovely Clavinova and Technics GA3 organ we also had a Korg Pa3X available to play. The Korg Pa3X is the very latest flagship keyboard from Korg. A great afternoon of music for those that made the effort to attend. The two raffle prizes were won by Marlene Forrest and Ngaire McRae.

Colin Crann got the afternoon off to a great start on the Clavinova.

John played the Korg Pa3X very nicely as always.             Ken Mahy gave the Korg Pa3X a good workout whilst Roy Steen took advantage of the afternoon to have a practise on the Technics GA3 organ in readiness for his performance for us at our June Club Night.
