This may be old news, but it's worth repeating: LB93 went

into effect of July 1, 2014. It allows you to renew your driver's

license and have the word "Veteran" imprinted on it (at no

extra cost). You first need to register with the NE Dept. of

Veterans Affairs. That can be done at

www.veterans.nebraska.gov and then click on the

button in the middle of the page "Veteran Registry".

You must register before you go to the DMV to renew your

license. Please share this information with other veterans

because it will allow you to receive veteran discounts at

Lowe's, Cabelas, and other establishments.

This workshop, led by championship fiddler and author, Deborah Greenblatt, is perfect for fiddlers who want to learn to play duets with other fiddlers.

Fiddle tunes from many traditions will be explored, including Irish, Swedish, Klezmer, Cajun, Scottish, etc.

Enrollment is limited to 10 fiddlers, and pre-registration is required. To sign up, or to ask questions, e-mail This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
