Last Wednesday we held 2 jams.  The final Westside daytime jam of the year was led by Sue and Peter Sercombe.  Over 40 members and friends celebrated another successful year of ukeing and singing. The annual Northside Christmas Spectacular was on in the evening.  It was the biggest and loudest jam ever held at the Geebung Bowls Club with about 100 (we lost count) attendees. We have 300+ members in BUMS, so that means we almost half of BUMS jammed on the same day.
