About the donation...................

     The monies that are collected at the door on concert/meeting night go toward paying the bands

that are performing that evening, [the ticket received for the donation gives its' holder a chance at a Door Prize

 given away after the concert]. In addition to the "donation funds" a 50/50 Drawing is run to provide

folks a chance at a CASH PRIZE  , 50 % of the money collected in the "Drawing Pot"

is given to the holder of the winning ticket [drawn at the end of the concert]. The other 50% of the

money is added to the "donation fund" and used to pay the costs of putting on the concert - In this way we are able

to continue to provide Great Bluegrass music every month without having to charge folks a much higher

"Admission Fee" as would be found at other festivals and concerts. The requested "Donation" is

  $2.00 per person for MEMBERS of the GCBMA, and $4.00 per person for  NON-MEMBERS.
