Well, after several months of planning, and many many helping hands involved, the Grand River Spey Clave held at Bean Park in Paris, Ontario last Saturday was a tremendous success! Randy Wilson began planning this event when there was still snow on the ground. Attendance shattered that of other similar claves in Ontario. There were about 100 people in attendance, great food, great coffee, door prizes, and best of all....great people!

He was on hand to give free demos, one on one style so that attendees could get the most out of the short time they had with him.
