Meeting Agenda

The theme for May's meeting was: Hawaiian and Summertime Songs.  The featured song was "That's The Hawaiian In Me" which is in the SUSA Songbook.  We had a lot of new ukers join us this month.  FUN!

BOSCO & HONEY visit the Aquila string factory in Caldogno, Italy.  Meet Mimmo...the owner, manager, and principle string artisan of Aquila Corde Armoniche.  The very popular, and very identifiable Aquila brand strings are arguably the best selling sets for the ukulele.  However, the factory actually produces strings for all stringed instruments. Notice how Mimmo adds the required silver metal winding around a cello string.  Mimmo’s strings are created one at a time...by hand.

This video was produced by a couple that has been touring and playing all over the world.  To see and hear more of Bosco & Honey’s adventure, visit their site HERE.

We’re on Summer Vacation!

See you September 20th.
