Ukulele Session in Mordialloc!

We're doing a special uke session in Mordialloc! Thanks to Helen and Mike for suggesting the idea and making it happen. I hope you can make it, it's a beautiful location and community space. If you have uke friends nearby, please let them know!

Venue: Mordialloc Motor Yacht Club
https://maps.app.goo.gl/TfDqYsh4RZdXi8hZ9
The club is located on an island. Access is at the back corner of the Bridge Hotel carpark, up stairs, across a bridge then down stairs (unfortunately no wheelchair access, apologies). The hall is upstairs, again no wheelchair access. Strictly NO DOGS are allowed on the island (apologies again). This is a Council rule - not a club rule.

Tickets: Because it's a tiny island, we need to control the attendance. To confirm your attendance, please get a free ticket by clicking on this trybooking link: https://www.trybooking.com/DISPZ
Attendance will be capped at 60 people so be quick!

Parking: Attached in the photo section is a map of the Club and surroundings. Yellow indicates where parking is possible, there's also some available along Bowman Street. If it is a nice day, lots of people will go to the beach so parking will be challenging - perhaps best to park elsewhere and take the train to Mordialloc. Note: You can't park at the Bridge Hotel carpark - they will get very cross.

Bring a plate for afternoon tea. There'll be sandwiches available and there are ovens if you want to warm food up. The Club will provide tea and coffee, the bar will be open for alcohol and soft drinks.

Suggested Playlist: Songs from the 60s and 70s - but you can request other songs too - I have thousands of songs.

Please bring your own ukulele, I won't be able to supply spare ukuleles today.

The session is free because I want to make it as accessible as possible but there is a donation box if you like our sessions and want to contribute to our operating expenses.

Getting there by public transport
Take the train to Mordialloc Station, then walk 700 metres to the Club.
or take bus 903 to Mordialloc Plaza, then walk 500 metres to the Club.

How we conduct our sessions
For the first 20 minutes we usually play very easy songs which are suitable for beginners (even complete beginners), and serve as a warm-up for more experienced players. Beginners, try to attend this part of the session, it's the most important bit for you! The next 30 minutes is usually devoted to learning new songs, according to the theme of week. We will then have a 10-minute break. The last 60 minutes is spent playing songs that participants pick from a list.

Important
If you are late, please use the meetup app to send messages to me. If you can't attend at the last minute, please change your RSVP or send a message. cheers,
Fi
