EQUINUNK, PA — With November waiting in the wings, musicians who perform on First Fridays at the Equinunk Historical Society are warming up for their inaugural performances at this season’s First Fridays, starting on November 6 at 1972 Pine Mill Rd. The free, popular, monthly “coffeehouse style” open mic runs through the end of April. Area performers are invited to entertain for 15 minutes or perform three songs, acoustic style only.

This month’s gathering will feature a tribute to beloved performer, Len DeDuke of Equinunk. DeDuke, a member of Actors’ Equity and an accomplished songster, usually began each program with a humorous piece to set the mood for the evening. MC Pat Wilson recalls that Len was the first performer to contact EHS and sign on for a “gig.” Dr. DeDuke passed away in February and is sorely missed.

Light refreshments are available for purchase, and donations are cheerfully accepted. To sign up for a performance slot, call 570/224-0223. Doors open at 6:30, the music starts around 7:15 p.m.
