Thanks Kale! We did have fun, but I overestimated the abilities of the ladies, so I had to do more of the work than I planned. I will be revising the build to make it easier for participants to be able to do it themselves.

You’re welcome Uncle John! “Singin’ in the Rain” has been well received by beginners. You can see me do my five minute challenge with it here: Five-minute Challenge

Thanks again Uncle John! Two are already Slingers; working on getting their friends on board. Hoping to have some new faces at the library on Saturday!

My go to starter song is “Singin’ in the Rain”, a two chorded also.

This looks like a rocking band, Doug.  Good on you and them.  I like to start new players off with the song, "Hush Little Baby".   It's a  two chorder.
