What we’re about
The Contookuleles is New Hampshire's newest ukulele meetup group. We are a fast-growing group of experienced players and beginners. We are all about learning, socializing, making music and, most of all, having fun!
New members are always welcome. We meet in the Community Room at the Hopkinton Town Library on the first and third Tuesday of every month from 6-8 p.m.

This will be a rehearsal for the Warner Ukulele Festival on October 4.
I created a new folder, Warner Songs. We will choose five or six songs for our set list. Will the Circle Be Unbroken is the finale song, to be performed by everyone attending.
Please also download the songs in this Kids' Songs folder. We'll be playing some of them with all the other groups at the Warner festival. For Ain't No Bugs on Me, I've asked other groups to write a verse, and each group will sing their own verse, with everyone joining in on the chorus. If you're feeling creative, please write a verse and send it to me.
