JAM SESSION at Autumn Woods, December 18, 2007

Member Ernie "Babe" Giancola has been a professional musician for over 67 years. But he had been unable to enjoy playing the clarinet since his arrival at Autumn Woods earlier this year. Today he was able to fulfill his dream of laying again when the Rascals of Ragtyme treated residents to a Dixieland Jazz program.  Ernie sat in and played every number, including some solos.  He was also presented with a Lifetime Member pin by President Joe Spain.
