We will play rain or shine.  If there is a threat of rain, we will move into the sanctuary. For those that are new to playing at the lakeside, the venue is to the right as you’re facing the front of the church. Just follow the sidewalk and path down the hill. You can’t miss it. There are no restroom facilities at lakeside so take care of that before you walk down the hill. Let us know if you need assistance.

Thank you and may God Bless!  See you Sunday!!

David
