Our own Pender Harbour HUGS (Harbour Ukulele Group Singers ) and guest ukulele players the BUGS (Beachcomber Ukulele Group Singers) from Roberts Creek came together on February 3 & 4 to be taught by one of the best ukulele teachers in the ukulele world. The Pender Harbour Music School offered an excellent venue for such a learning event. We look forward to welcoming Peter Luongo back next year to show him all that we have learned from him.
