Teens jam each week

ATTENTION ASPIRING rock stars.

Every Friday night, except when there is a dance or special event
planned, teens are invited to bring their instruments to the Lynn
Valley Teen Centre and jam the night away with other teen musicians.

Whether you’re an accomplished player or just beginning, you're
invited to come to the Lynn Valley Recreation Centre and make music
in your own neighborhood.

Contact the Lynn Valley youth programmer at 984-9341 to make
sure the Friday you wish to come on is free. Friends are welcome to
join you and enjoy the tunes.
