[PTChamber] Friday email

[Susan Grantham/PTCC]

Happy Friday, everyone!

Last night's concert on the dock featured No Inhibitions Dixieland  
Jazz, and they really rocked the dock.  If you missed it, make a  
point to join us next Thursday at Quincy Street dock from 6-8pm.   
Next week, Hot Club Sandwich will bring its gypsy swing for you to  
move and groove to.  We have chairs, or you can bring your own, but  
you might not need it once the music gets started.  You just might  
end up in dance area.  Many thanks to our major sponsors Puget Sound  
Energy, Peninsula Daily News, First Fed, and Ancestral Spirits for  
making this series of great music available for everyone to enjoy.
