I just finished a 5 week class in Cyert entitled – An Appalachian Overview.  It explored the crafts, culture, language and music of Appalachia.  We learned how to correctly pronounce the word.  It’s said like – I threw an  -  APPLE-AT-CHA.

For the last class six class members brought their instruments and formed an impromptu band and with no practice accompanied the class as we sang – Take Me Home Mountain Roads.   Class members got to know each other.   A very good and encouraging instructor – Rebecca Carpenter.  Everyone had a GREAT time.  That’s what Osher is all about.  Come to Cyert and join in the learning and fun.
