Schweinhaut Song Circle

  • 10 Nov 2023
  • 1:30 PM - 3:30 PM
  • Online via Zoom

The monthly Schweinhaut Song Circle provides a daytime opportunity to enjoy delightful songs, old or new, humorous or serious, timeless or topical. Free!

Everyone is welcome, regardless of experience. Come for informal group singing or just to listen, only via Zoom this month! The Schweinhaut Senior Center will be closed in observance of Veterans Day.

November 7 is Election Day, November 11 is Veterans Day, and November 23 is Thanksgiving Day. Bring or request songs related to any of those days, or any other songs!

We'll go around the Zoom "room" as many times as we can, giving everyone a chance to lead or request a song (or just pass) during each round.

If you wish to request particular songs, it helps to keep the singing going if you let us know in advance using the registration form linked below.

Susan McNelis will lead songs with guitar accompaniment, and any participant may lead any song, a cappella or self-accompanied.

The Song Circle will be held only on Zoom this month because the Margaret Schweinhaut Senior Center will be closed on November 10 in observance of Veterans Day.

You can join us on Zoom with any Internet-connected device--computer, tablet, or smartphone--or you can join by dialing a phone number.

The Zoom link and phone number will be sent Friday morning to those who have attended the Schweinhaut Song Circle using Zoom and to others who register at https://forms.gle/jr4sR9tmu6VRMBdN8 by Thursday, November 9.

If this will be your first use of Zoom, go to https://zoom.us, click on " Sign Up Free " and follow the prompts. Do this ahead of time so that you'll be all set to "join the meeting" when it's time to do so. Information about getting started with Zoom is at https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/categories/200101697.

Before you join a Zoom session, if you installed Zoom on your computer before October 30, go to zoom.us/download to download and install the current version (5.16.6).  For a smartphone or tablet, update the Zoom app from your App Store or equivalent source.

Join us on November 10 via Zoom. Especially if you're just getting started with Zoom, please try to join the Zoom session 5 or 10 minutes before 1:30 p.m. so we can help with any technical issues before the singing begins.
