Reminders to me 

I have received a large number of group leads from the Rochester area; I am following up on them; some are academic-based groups that invite musicians from the community. Thank you, Joe Baker.

People have asked about big bands (jazz) and drum and bugle (or fife) corps. And Klezmer bands. Just how many group types are there? No change in plans now until I get more group data.

Need to start making phone calls both to fill out pages and to verify groups.

Checked with the Boerger site people; they don't want my group data unless I am in that group.
