Social Club 4 March CANCELLED Sorry
Sincere apologies, everyone - Deb and Jenni are unable to perform for us on Wednesday due to illness. We hope to get them another month.
We've decided to cancel the Social Club for this week. We're looking into the possibility of holding it on Wednesday 18 March, and will let you know if it's going to happen. Pencil it in, just in case!
Meanwhile, hope to see you on Monday 9 March, 7pm, for the singaround (on our new time and day) - same venue, upstairs at the Johnsonville Club.
Best wishes
Janette for Acoustic Routes Committee

The monthly concert is tonight in Johnsonville, and applications for The Joan Prior Scholarship Award Closes 11.59pm tonight too!!
It feels a bit soon to be having our monthly concert tomorrow (Monday 15 September) but it really is the 3rd Monday! It features out-of-town guests Barry and Lorna Swallow, with local support acts Stephen Hill and Beans Wright. Upstairs at the Johnsonville Club, 1 Norman Lane (off Johnsonville Road), Johnsonville, Wellington, 7:30 pm. All welcome.
Also, the Joan Prior Award for young folk musicians will close at 11:59 pm on Monday 15 September. The award is different this year in that it's not limited to performers. If you (or someone you know) have a project in mind that needs a bit of funding, and you fit the criteria, you could win $500 to help you along your way - but only if you put in an application! Pass it on to anyone you know who might be interested. See more and enter on the Joan Prior entry page on the website. https://acousticroutes.org.nz/
