Valentines Day
Snow
& Ice Winter Concert
February
14th, Saturday Night
Come and
make your Valentines Day plans with us at the Barnstead Town Hall!
On Saturday
night, February 14th, there may be snow and ice on the ground, but there
will be music coming out of the Barnstead Town Hall along with dinner
and dessert! Roy D’Innocenzo on jazz guitar will be featured
accompanied by Chris Bonoli on guitar/voice, and Charlie Hausen on bass
guitar for a set of jazzy tunes.
The evening
will end with an hour of Barber Shop Quartet acapella music by the local
singing group “Slightly Worn.” The group features Dave Gruette of
Barnstead as lead, Lannie Wood of Pittsfield as tenor, Rich Schaffer of
Dunbarton singing baritone and Niall Trimby of Laconia is their “big
bass.” All these guys have barbershop in their blood and compete each
year in New England.
As usual,
concert tickets include a meal. The show will be from 7:00-9:15 p.m.
The doors open for food at 6:00. We will provide larger sized plates
and trays making it easier to sit and eat. All proceeds will benefit
the children’s summer camper’s fund of the Congregational Church of
North Barnstead. To reserve tickets or for more information call Chris
Bonoli at 603-340-1468, leave a message, and your call will be returned
in the evening. Thank you for all your support and success with the New
Year’s Eve Milk and Cookies Concert!
