September 24th Sparkey's Strummers String Band

Sparkey’s Strummers are one of the oldest String Bands in the Villages. Their music is from the Golden Days. The musicians play Banjos, Guitars, Sousaphone, Bass, Ukuleles, Washboard, in addition to having some lively vocalists. Come and stomp your feet, sing-a-long, or just listen to the music from 1900 through the 1950’s!

Sept. 24th Truman Rec. Centre 6-9 pm

Free event for Members, $5.00 charge for guests and non-members

October 22nd THE BRITISH INVASION

Tie-dye-clad dancers and the tuning sounds of musical instruments greet those who attend the Beatlemaniacs of The Villages club meetings.

At 10 a.m. Fridays, anywhere from 50 to 100 people wander in and out of Odell Recreation Center in their favorite ’60s looks as club members gather to learn trivia about the Beatles and to hear or play the band’s iconic music.

Meeting people who come from all over — not just The Villages, but the country — and feeling connected by the music is the best part of the club, said Jim Fraser, president and founder of the Beatlemaniacs.

“This is something we all have in common,” said Fraser, of the Village of Silver Lake.

Club meetings last about two hours and typically start out with historical facts about the Beatles or context about the songs being played that day. That’s followed by an informational video about the band.
