Summerfolk TuneUp

There was a cool wind but the sun was shining for our first ever Summerfolk TuneUp.
Thanks to Don Miller, we have a nice collection of photos from Sunday, May 31st at Kelso Beach Park.
The concert featured young performers who came through the Georgian Bay Folk Society's 'Discoveries Showcase' and Knox Acoustic Cafe's 'Youth Showcase'.
