Musicians warm up Friday night at the Blueberry Community School, getting ready to perform for the seasonal wind-up event of the Blueberry Bluegrass group. They wound up operations and will resume in the fall. For information on the group call Ruth or Nick Kozub at 250-365-5538. Demonstrating the region-wide appeal of the bluegrass style, the pictured pickers above are, from left: Al Suttey of Fruitvale, Harvey Muller of Blueberry, Don Casey of Silverton and Gene Hurd of Slocan City.
