Who says you have to be an "old-timer" to have as much fun as this? Our members' ages range from very young to the very young at heart. Our common bond? A love for traditional acoustic music and the desire to play, perpetuate, and preserve it. Although fiddles always rule, we welcome toe-tappers and players of other acoustic instruments to come out and join us. Whether you're a beginner or an old pro, come out and meet us at the next jam.

Welcome to District 9!

We meet the 4th Sunday of every month*
in Castro Valley.

1:30-5 pm.
United Methodist Church
19806 Wisteria Street
Castro Valley, CA

Door Donation:
First-time Visitors: Free
CSOTFA Members: $3
Non-members: $5

* Except December, when we meet on the 2nd Sunday.

District 9 is large. We know that many
members cannot make the trip out to Castro
Valley each month. Please check the News
page to see if any satellite jams or events are
listed for your area. If you have an event,
please let us know, and we'll post it.
