Two things!
I reserved Picnic Shelter C for our annual fall picnic at Emerson Park in Midland on Sunday, September 11th from noon-6pm. SUGAR will provide chicken and bottled water, but if you're coming, please bring tableware and a dish to pass. I'll bring a sign-up sheet to the upcoming SUGAR events so we can have a rough idea of who is planning to come.

Also, we will have a Saturday evening pre-concert slot to do our thing at the Midland Folk Music Festival on Saturday evening, August 27th, from 5:15-5:40, so I have created a sub-folder of 60's chick songs to perform there. Here is the link to download those songs to your tablet (or print them out, or whatever makes you happy!) LINK: https://drive.google.com/.../1SfEsoOEBSS_YFX... 





We will be playing at Wellspring in Saginaw on August 4th, and so I asked Renee to come up with a senior-friendly playlist, which she graciously did for us. Here is the link to a Google Drive folder with those songs that you can download as a single folder or else just use this list and use the version on your tablet (which is the same, except for #3, which is a medley of songs that some of the residents will be playing along with us...
1. Side by Side, 2. Any Time, 3. Three play-alongs 4. IBW on RR, 5. Heart of My Heart 6. Hey, Good Lookin, 7. Ain't She Sweet, 8. Bye-Bye Blackbird, 9. Blame It on the Bossa Nova, 10. By the Light of the Silvery Moon, 11. Love Letters in the Sand, 12. Five Foot Two, 13. Carolina in the Morning, 14. I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing, 15. King of the Road, 16. This Land, 17.

Who's in for Porchfest? (Saturday, 6/25 from 1:00-2:45 in Port Austin)


Here's what to expect in July ... (this is an early version and is subject to change - for example, the last date is actually Tuesday, July 26th!)



Here's the link to the updated June 2022 SUGAR song folder. Download it and bring it along to SUGAR events!





Krzysiak's time change for

Wednesday, April 20, 2022!!!

They are having a funeral luncheon for 100 people at 3;30 on Wednesday, and so we are delaying everything for an hour and will meet at 5:30 (hoping that the funeral crowd is on their way by then). Play from 5:30-6:15, and play from 6:15-7:30 is the plan. Please pass the word, as I was just notified of this yesterday (Monday).

Well, it appears that we need to make an alteration in our schedule, since Cafe 989 is closing. Scratch Saturday, March 26th as well as future dates. I would like us to still have a presence in Saginaw - got any ideas? - Johnny Hunt




DIRECTIONS FOR THE FEBRUARY 3rd SUGAR ENGAGEMENT AT WELLSPRING IN SAGINAW:

Enter the property by taking the driveway on the south side of the building, the side that is next to Nouvel High School. The portico is a porch type overhang where cars can drive up to pick up the residents. You can't miss it. There is parking right there. I'm not sure how it is marked. For those who have played with us before, it is the driveway on the other side of the building where the sign is. Because of Covid restrictions, all of the external entrances are now locked, except the main one we must go through.  Please check in at that front portico entrance and must wear face masks while walking in the Wellspring hallways but not while performing.
