Tuba's!
Greetings!   
 

This Thursday, January 12th 7-PM at the Hangar Restaurant, Albert Whitted Airport, in St. Pete is an informal informational event openhanger to all of you who want to join the Rounders...but just haven't yet (you know who you are!). Appetizers as well as a cash bar and menu service available.

 

Come "learn from the pros" about the organization, its culture, history, rehearsals, and performances for 2012.

 

And, for you existing Rounders, it's time to "bring a friend!" Toward keeping our numbers strong your Rounders need a membership "push" every few years. This is That year. You enjoy this fine organization...won't they? Bring them WITH you Thursday to the Hangar!
