[Dixielandjazz] Dixieland4Dixieland

[Graham Young]

I am working hopefully with the Red Cross and can tug some
coat tails. They are already taking donations in.

We can use a park while weather is good.
The local Newspaper will help I am sure.
Always looking for a good story

We may be able to use our convention centre and we do have a lot of hockey
arenas here.
Also we play for charities here to help them so local Rotary and
other clubs may help us.

The musicians are agreeing to help so we have the key element
Dixieland music.

We can only help.

Actually it's a good idea but coming up with a suitable venue that would
matter isn't so easy.  I planned to start feeling out my friends views in
the next couple of days and see what they would like to do and collect
ideas.
