FFS Board of Directors Volume 46 Edition 5 May 2017 Submit articles to: [email protected] By the 15th of each month FFS Board Of Directors President A Non-Profit Corporation for Traditional Arts Denise Sciandra [email protected] Notes from Board President, Denise Sciandra Vice President I’m a new fan of Cayucos. For those not familiar with it, this small Paul Starcevich [email protected] (population about 2600) community is located right on the ocean between Cambria and Morro Secretary Sue Wirt Bay. I went there for the first time in April with [email protected] the String Band for its second annual jam. Treasurer Jim Ross Participants this time were Karen Starcevich, Betty and Greg [email protected] Merrill, Andrea and John McDaniel, Denise and Salvatore Concert Master Sciandra, Susan Tellier, Kelly O’Neill, Marc “Ez” Poschman, Pat Wolk and Vickie Nodacker. Non [email protected] instrument-playing spouses, Paul Membership Starcevich and Anastasia O’Neill, Patty Bennett Andrea McDaniel [email protected] also joined the fun. Lifetime Member We stayed at the Cayucos Motel which is owned by Alan Hubbart the sister of String Band member, Vickie Nodacker. Members At Large The motel is just a few steps from the ocean. It is Ron Bohigian [email protected] reasonably priced and offers a substantial “continental Bill Lehr breakfast” that’s included. It’s small with only eight [email protected] rooms. Since Karen Starcevich the string band [email protected] reserved the Sal, Denise, Kelly, Anastasia Ann Lamb entire place, it allowed us to play music [email protected] whenever we wished. Bill Johnson [email protected] The weather was windy and cold so the Flyer Editor jamming took place indoors this year. Bill Johnson Karen quietly made sure that the [email protected] afternoon jam was inclusive of those of us Calendar Editor who rely on sheet music. That afternoon, Maria Glover Betty and Greg Merrill HM 559-322-8677 Vickie recorded us at the request of her Cell 559-281-8278 sister playing “Sail Away, Ladies.” That video and additional photos can be viewed [email protected] on the Cayucos Motel’s Facebook page.

Box 4617 Fresno, CA 93744 Banjo Frog Art Submit articles for publication to [email protected] by Jon Adams by the 15th of each month 1 In addition to playing music, other popular activities were window shopping, walking on the pier, and eating out. Brown Butter Cookie Company, and A Deli & Pieman Pies, and Top Dog Coffee Bar were popular and already known to the group. Thank you to my friend, Leigh Deguili, for recommending Cafe Della Via and its delicious Italian food. Our parting activity was breakfast outside on the motel picnic tables chatting and gazing at the ocean at which time, Karen said, “This is my idea of a perfect vacation.” Me, too. I’m looking forward to next year. Sue Tellier Sal Sciandra Front l-r: Sal, E.Z., Vickie Rear l-r: Denise, Greg, Betty, Karen, Susan, John, Andrea Longtime FFS Board member, Steve Ono, has resigned from the Board. However, he will still be volunteering behind the scenes doing such things as creating flyers to promote events, creating tickets, and setting up sound. He will continue to play and teach guitar. Thank you, Steve, for your past (and future) service. Steve Ono In a special election, Pat Wolk has been elected to take his place. We welcome her back to the FFS board after a few years absence. Pat first became a board member as President in 1991 on her retirement from Fresno State when Kevin Hall phoned her and said: “The FFS board just had a meeting and elected you president.” “But-but-but,” she protested, and then said: “What the hell. Okay.” And thus began a 20-plus year commitment to the FFS board. That first year she and Bill Rickard organized a monthly John McCutcheon and Pat Wolk concert series with John McCutcheon the first January, the week of Pat’s birthday. John has returned every year in January since 1992, each year expanding his fan base. Pat does not play an instrument but considers herself a “groupie” who loves the music and respects the musicians. She has created a beautiful garden environment for them in which to perform. 2 LOVELY PINWHEEL QUILT TO BE RAFFLED Let me tell you about Helen Woodall, Lyni Woodall's mother. Helen Woodall was a teacher in Mariposa and Madera for many years. She and her husband raised four children, one of whom is Lyni Woodall. Helen spent her “spare” time doing lots of various crafts, candle making, soap making, leather working (with her husband), candle-wicking (a form of needle work), crocheting, knitting, ceramics, cross stitch, and QUILTING. After she retired, she dove into quilting big time. She was a charter member of the Heart of California Quilt Guild and was their first featured quilter at the Madera County Fair in 1996. One year (1992-93) she made sixteen quilts so that her children and grandchildren could each choose a quilt of his/her very own. She made sixteen so that the eleven recipients would have a wide range of choices and not feel that there was no choice if you were the one at the end. She taught quilting to her daughters who used to meet for a weekend each year at Tahoe and do quilts together. Helen, like all quilters, had tons of material from which to choose, and all of it “demanded” to be made into something. Lyni has graciously and generously donated one of Helen's quilts to the Fresno Folklore Society to be raffled as a fundraiser. It is a beautiful pinwheel design and sized for a king size bed. If you see Sue Wirt at any events in April, she should have raffle tickets with her. They are $5.00 for six tickets, $10.00 for twelve, and so on. The raffle will be held at the Laurie Lewis concert on May 7th at the Wolk Folk Garden. You need not be present to win but it would be nice to see all of you there, anyway. Helen's legacy continues to go out into the world and bring joy to others. (Sue Wirt) Community Dance Changes The tradition of twice monthly Contra Dances which have been held for many years, most recently at the California Dance Academy, have been discontinued due to low attendance. Organizers will take another look at possibly restarting them next year. Send any ideas you have that may bring renewed contra dance success to Evo Bluestein at [email protected]. Until then, keep those hooves a shakin’. In the meantime, the 1st Saturday English Country Dance continues in Auberry and the 4th Saturday Irish dance continues at Cal Arts Academy. There will also be a quarterly North Fork Dance starting June 16. Details at evobluestein.com. or email Evo. NORTH FORK COMMUNITY DANCES START JUNE 16, 2017 Quarterly community contra/country dance, 6:30-9 PM North Fork Christian Center $2/person and $10/family at the door Friday, June 16 Friday Sept. 8 Friday Dec. 8 Location: North Fork Christian Center (across the street from North Fork Market) 57044 Road 225 North Fork, CA 93643 3 Celebrating the Bow-–Fresno’s First World Fiddle Day Folklore Society member Larry Cusick is bringing World Fiddle Day to Fresno. He has recruited some of Fresno’s finest fiddlers to perform in a free concert on Saturday, May 27, 1 - 5 pm. The venue is the Academy of Music and Arts (formerly the Voice Shop) at 1296 N. Wishon Ave., in Fresno’s Tower District. A committee of Fresno Folklore Society members, including Linda Guerrero, Karana Drayton and Megan Bohigian, is assisting in the planning and logistics for the event, which is sponsored by the Fresno Folklore Society and American Music Company. The concert program will be varied, featuring American Old Time, Scandinavian, Celtic, World and Quebecois music played by an impressive roster of expert fiddlers, including Terry Barrett, Donn Beedle, Evo Bluestein and his students, Larry Cusick, Jared Dean, Katzi Engle, Linda Guerrero, Kathryn Johnson, Carl Parnell, EZ Marc Poschman, Mark Ryan, Barry Shultz, and George White. Admission to Fresno’s First World Fiddle Day is free, but donations are gladly accepted. Members of the Kenny Hall Santa Fe Basque jam, left to right: Linda Guerrero, Terry Barrett, and the late Kenny Hall. What a beautiful Easter Weekend at Finegold: flowers blooming, water flowing, pleasant daytime weather …but it was chilly at night. Cooked my brunch (potatoes and carrots) in the solar cooker. Saturday afternoon music near the grotto featured Billy DeWitt’s country rock band. Up on the Gatehaus porch there were Frank Moshella, Bruce King, Jeff Grule and Bill Lehr in a virtually acoustic mode accompanying Studio Creek and Barn the lovely voice of Sue Ellen McCutcheon. Then we all enjoyed the tri-tip barbeque. Sunday morning at Council Rock a pair of Easter Bunnies appeared to lead children out to the grain field for the traditional Easter Egg hunt Susie Hickman at 90 followed by a picnic with friends, neighbors and acquaintances. Finegold creek flowed too much to get into the grottos. However, they should be very accessible for our Memorial Weekend Tie-Dye workshop/campout. Will we see you this year at a few workshops: tie-dyeing? Flint napping? Gold panning? Grotto exploring? Camping? Solar cooking? Hiking? Music jams? Pottery? We could use some assistance with weed whacking to comply with fire code.

  • Laurie Lewis Brings Bluegrass to the Columbia Gorge by Nora Candey Published in the Oregon Bluegrass Association’S Newsletter Bluegrass Express, Summer 2018
    Sweet Haven of Mercy: Laurie Lewis Brings Bluegrass to the Columbia Gorge By Nora Candey Published in the Oregon Bluegrass Association’s newsletter Bluegrass Express, summer 2018 The Road to Menucha The morning of April 22nd 2018 saw the sun rise in a clear blue sky over Portland, Oregon. It was an anomaly in a spring locale typically shrouded in gray and rain. As my husband and I packed and prepared for our trip up the Columbia Gorge, we felt a heightening sense of excitement at the great weather and the experiences in store for us at Laurie Lewis's inaugural Bluegrass in the Gorge camp. We had both heard great things about the Menucha Retreat and Conference Center, though neither of us had been. The camp was to feature small group instruction by Laurie and friends on our instruments, singing, and songwriting. I was looking forward to improving my banjo chops with Justin Hiltner, and my husband, who had just begun playing mandolin two months prior, was unsure whether he'd be able to attend any of the workshops with Tom Rozum, as he was worried about slowing up the group as a bluegrass newbie. By that afternoon, every last detail of packing and cat-sitting was attended to, and we headed off into the Gorge. A Peaceful Place As Scott drove and I navigated us off the main road onto the hilly, wooded entrance to the Menucha grounds, I couldn't help but feel I was entering a different world. This is a lush place with a feel of magic about it, and a kind of ineffable peace is pervasive.

    SPECIAL REPORT 289 Building the Road Safety Profession in the Public Sector SPECIAL REPORT 289 Since the 1960s, the number of fatalities per mile driven in the United States has fallen by 75 Building the percent because of a combination of public and private actions to improve driver perfor- mance, motor vehicles, the highway environment, and postcrash emergency response and medical care. Yet even with this progress, more than 40,000 people are killed each year on the nation’s roadways. This report examines the growing need for experts at all levels of govern- Road Safety ment to develop and implement systems and science-based approaches that will continue to effect improvements in road safety.
