Registrants will be getting emails to ask for workshop preferences, whether you want to join in on BandHui, and other survey questions.

Handouts
Handouts will being posted on the website. Please print anything you want to use or bring your own iPads/tablets/computers.
Music Stands
You can bring a music stand or get creative with hanging your music, if you have printed copies.
See photos below with piece of cardboard clipped to a swivel-hook hanger. The cardboard gives the page stability. If the hanger is wider than 8 ½", add an additional clip. Also, consider using sticky putty to connect the paper to the cardboard. (This idea was borrowed from Dani Joy & Reno Uke Fest.)
