Sad News

 

Dear Vault family,

It is with great sadness that I just found out and have to inform you that Jay Chollick passed away on August 27.

The Vault will host a proper tribute event for jay when social circumstances change and we can gather safely. It will be a chance for us all to share our memories of all these years with Jay.

Just a reminder that the monthly Vault zoom performance gathering is next Saturday Sept. 12 @ 8pm.

If you have not already, make sure you let me know you’re interested so I can send you the zoom sign in info.

with love,
Tone

Next Zoom Meeting – Sept 12th, 8PM

The first Vault Zoom performance gathering was a huge success., an intimate gathering, and a passionate mix of music and poetry. Overall most enjoyable and enlightening.
I know that some of you planned on attending, but had power and internet issues- no worries, we’ll see you next time.
The night was recorded and I will let everyone know when it goes up on Youtube.

Until we can gather live again, lets make it monthly, every second Saturday.
The next one is September 12 @ 8pm.

If you have already let me know you were interested )whether you attended Saturday or not)
I have you on the list to send the Zoom login info. for future zooms.

If you didn’t get back to me and are interested, just email me back and I’ll put you on the list.

Hope you Stay healthy & happy, Tone
