{Patron-only post}

Aloha Patrons!

Welcome to the last vote of 2017!  Allow me a minute of nostalgia to recap this year's votes:

That is a whole lot of amazing songs, and your patronage created all of those tutorials which are now available for everyone to enjoy.  THANK YOU for your support in contributing new resources for our ukulele community, and for actively helping to shape my teaching.

This month, I'm including "Cynthia's choice" which was suggested by Patrons, and which I'm happy to add (if this option wins, I will take the vote tallies into consideration).  I'm also including the top songs from the polls over the last few months, as well as adding some of the write-in suggestions from last month's vote.  

HOW TO VOTE

1. vote for as many of the checkbox song choices as you like below- multiple votes allowed.  please note - as soon as you tick the checkbox, the vote is counted.  (you can look at the ticker on the right!)  note #2 - some Patrons have commented that the voting doesn't work on certain devices, so you might need a desktop browser vs iPad.

2. in addition, you can comment below with a song that you'd want a tutorial for. this will help with song choices for future votes. and you can upvote other people's song choices as well by clicking the heart on their comment.

Voting closes Sunday 12/17 at 11:59pm Pacific Time.  I'll announce the winner on Monday, and I'll post the chord chart before the Live Lesson on Thursday 12/28 (Lesson is moved because holidays / my travel).

Thank you, and happy voting!

xo cynthia.
