Bluegrass Jamming Sessions |
|
|
|
Every Thursday at the Helsby Ex-Serviceman's Club there is a fantastic opportunity for musicians of all levels to have fun and improve their musical skills playing as a group.
If you are at all worried about playing with others, please do not be. The people are very friendly and it is easy to blend in to the throng of musicians, playing at whatever level you can.
Many people come along as very much a beginner and simply strum along with one or two chords until they get the hang of it. If you need to be shown that first chord, there will be someone there to help you. There are always players of guitar, banjo, mandolin & fiddle and often others too.
Most weeks, experienced players / music teachers will lead part of the session at a slow pace with lots of instruction and encouragement for the beginner.
You can also sit back and enjoy the music. Starts at 8.30pm. |

King's Church & Dads on Duty |
|
|
|
Kings Church Chester Road (nr Helsby High School) 10am each Sunday: Worship service Everyone welcome - activities for all age groups of children.
Dads on Duty
9.30 - 11.30am on 1st & 3rd Saturdays of each month DOD is a play group for Dads/Grandads/Uncles etc and their pre-school aged children.
The idea for the group came out of a conversation between a few guys who thought that whilst there is a big selection of Mums & Toddler type groups in Frodsham & Helsby, why not have one just for the blokes? And that's what we have done.
So, if like us, your Saturday morning lie-ins are well and truly a thing of the past, then why not come and join us? Don't worry, we won't make you sing nursery rhymes or make animal noises! It's more just having a bacon butty, coffee and a chat with someone else who like you used to get much more sleep! (The children seem to enjoy it too!).
We also organize the odd social event just for Dads! For any further information contact Andy Pearson on 01928 732585 or email
