MONTHLY CNYBA MEETING/JAMS GOING STRONG!

The next regular meeting will be in September of 2013
Check here for details as they become available

Regular meetings are held every 2nd Sunday - September to May (except December)

If you're looking for a good place to meet musicians who share your love of bluegrass music - or to learn some new or old songs -
this is the place!


Following is a message from the Delaneys. Ray's home address is: 58 Floral Ave., Cortland, NY 13045. We will let you know if and when we find a better place to address cards.
 
"This is going to be a very difficult post to send out to you all. Jonathan Delaney just called me from Boston and the prognosis is not good for Brother Ray. He has a rare form of liver cancer that attacks the bile ducts, which has caused his bilirubin counts to elevate to a point where they can't do chemo. They put stents in, but those got infected so they had to go back and put them in again. They are waiting to see if these ones will drain the bile from his liver so they can proceed with chemo.

Please keep Ray, Vicky, John, Jonathan, and the entire family in your prayers. Blessings on you all for your prayers, concern, and show of love for this special man."
