Bagpipe Horse Whisperer What is Tartan Day? I just got off the phone with Steve. It is already sleeting and freezing where he lives, and the route he has to take is through the main part of tomorrow mornings storm.
We decided it would be safest for him not to risk the trip, so we are going to CANCEL Saturdays clinic. He was very excited to come down, and he had several items he was going to bring us. He will send them Monday and we should have them by next weeks rehearsal. We will do our best to reschedule our clinic. More details to come. Sorry for the inconvenience, but more importantly stay safe everyone on the roads this weekend! Please check your email/website news/facebook later today and early tomorrow morning.
There is significant ice and snow scheduled at the same time as our clinic Saturday between GR and Traverse City. This is the exact place Steve will be driving to get to Caledonia. If there are any changes or cancellations of the clinic we will let you know via email/ website news/facebook as soon as we hear anything. |
