Greetings and salutations to all who wander by this place, the digital home of The Harp Guitar Gathering®!  I hope you are well and staying both safe and sane.

As of this morning, Covid-19 has claimed 405,000 lives in this country alone.  Vaccines are getting out there but the virus still rages.  While there is certainly more pain to come, I am hopeful that this thing might be in our collective rear view mirror sometime later this year.

It’s obviously a challenge to plan any sort of event again this year, especially at this early date.  However I hope there might be a little more clarity  a few months from now.  If that is indeed the case, and if the signs in late March/early April seems to indicate that a Gathering in the Autumn is something that can be safely managed, then we on the HGG Executive Board will spring into action.   We’ll get a date on the calendar and a plan in motion.  If prudence dictates otherwise, we’ll plan for another virtual HGG, of course.  But I very much hope that won’t be necessary.

So, you all stay safe out there and check in periodically!  Check your B strings.

Best wishes,

Stephen
