Luttrell Elementary Fiddle Club receives two more fiddles

Dennis Johnson and Wayne Goforth inspect one of the fiddles they donated to the the Luttrell Elementary Fiddle Club.

Interested citizens donated fiddles during the Luttrell Elementary Fiddle Club and Choir Music Awards and Parent Night in May.
Dennis and Gwen Johnson presented the club with a rare German made fiddle that had belonged to their son. They originally purchased the fiddle in Maryland. When Dennis was transferred to Oregon, the fiddle made the trip. Once they arrived in Oregon, the fiddle spent more time stored on a shelf.

There was “More Fiddlin' Around” as fiddle lovers of all ages welcomed competitors in Union County Heritage Festival's Second Annual Fiddle Contest on Saturday, October 5, 2019. Amateur fiddlers took the stage and performed their best renditions of some fiddle favorites. While the judges were wrestling with very difficult decisions, all of the fiddle participants and several of the guitar, string bass, and mandolin players leaped to the stage to entertain the crowd with an impromptu performance of several popular fiddle tunes.
