Folks, the February edition of the TFTM newsletter was the last and has been replaced by an online newsblog. We are trying to save trees, money, and volunteers!

The TFTM newsblog will be a contributor supported site for the purpose of passing on contra news, events, music, pictures, shoes, etc. A contributor can be anyone interested in furthering contra fun and we encourage callers and musicians, writers, photogs, travelers, dancers, pet sitters to become involved. Posts can be made anytime from any computer anywhere and the learning curve is easy. No need to live in Tucson or Arizona! If we've piqued your curiosity check it out at:

If you like what you see and would like more information,
contact Suzanne:


In addition to the newsblog, TFTM will continue to email out weekly reminders of upcoming events. If you would like to get on that list or to take your name off of that list, send a note to
