April Jam Session on April 10, not April 3

Because the Potomac Valley Scottish Fiddle Club has had to move its April meeting to the 3rd, the Royal Mile Scottish Jam for April will occur a week later, on April 10.

Hope to see you there!

P.S. I'm hoping to get caught up on the backlog of tune lists soon.
