The best of February 2025 on the Vineyard


  • Herb Foster's Birthday Fundraiser - Saturday, February 1st from 4:00pm to 6:00pm - Join the Friends of the Library on the anniversary of what would have been former beloved trustee Herb Foster's 97th birthday to socialize, reminisce, celebrate, eat hot dogs, and donate!

The boundary is really, does the song have the capacity to be delivered by our trio and the singer who wants to sing that song?
