The old year was ended at Fletcher Hall of the UUC with a good variety of music, recruited by Josh and Harris. Anna Berlin’s Mocha Coffee, Shirley Temples, Julia as […]

Nearly everything went as planned on this first event of the year, and first time at St. James. There was plenty of music, Battle of the Band winners and runners-up, some spirited […]
