Entertaining the Prescott Club

On the last Wednesday of each month, members of The North Shore Organ and Keyboard Club give a pre-luncheon Concert for the Prescott Club (part of Age Concern North Shore) at St Joseph's Church Hall in Takapuna. This month Diane Lyons (vocals and keyboard) and Gordon Sutherland (keyboard) had the pleasure of entertaining the members.

The audience certainly enjoyed the sing-alongs that Diane played and aided by her 'Roadie', Dennis Lyons. To provide variety, Gordon Sutherland played orchestral ballads. Lunch looked very tempting too thanks to the volunteer kitchen staff for Age Concern. As always it was a sheer delight to play to such lovely people.

The North Shore Organ and Keyb0oard Club Events Manager, Peter Brophy, organizes the Community Programme for the Club and the Age Concern’s Prescott Club is part of the schedule.
