We would like to thank all members who renewed their membership during the COVID-19 pandemic. Your support of local bluegrass music is very much appreciated. The High Lonesome Strings Bluegrass Association is alive and well, waiting for the COVID regulations to ease up so that we can start having events again. In the meantime, due to the lack of membership benefits and group events over the past year, we have extended all active membership expiration dates by another year. All 2021 members’ new expiration date is June 30, 2022. Any other members who did renew their membership for 2021 will also have their membership changed to 2022.
We do plan to have our Picking in the Park festival this year on May 14, 2022. Be sure to add to your calendar. If you had paid for reservations at the campground, you can call the park and change them to 2022. The bands for the 2022 festival are Dewey & Leslie Brown & The Carolina Gentlemen, Cuttin’ Grass, Gaining Ground, Hubert Lawson & the Bluegrass Country Boys, Never Too Late, and the 2020-2021 Scholarship winners.
Please know that all of you are in our thoughts during this time, and we thank you for continuing to support the community of Bluegrass music. Please be safe!
Kindest regards,
Elizabeth Greeson, President
High Lonesome Strings Bluegrass Association
