It was in April 1968 that the "Hammond Organ Society" (Jersey branch) was formed. Some sixty people attended that evening at La Moye Hotel to witness the formation of this Society of Organ enthusiasts and listen to the music played by international organist and recording artiste, Keith Beckingham, who travelled to Jersey especially for the concert.
In 1981 the Society was renamed "The Jersey Electronic Organ Society" as a wider range of electronic organs became available to our members.
In September 2003 we relocated to The Gardeners Tea Room, at Ransom's Garden Centre, in the Parish of St. Martin.
Our move has proved very fruitful as we have more than doubled our audience and our Membership now stands in excess of eighty.
In the interval at our monthly concerts we serve a complimentary "SWEET TREAT" usually Pie and Custard (all very low calorie, of course!). We also have a Members' draw, a Raffle and bar service till 9.30 pm.
We organise various socials during the year, Club Evenings, BBQ and Christmas Party all open to non Members, friends and our fellow music lovers from The Guernsey Organ Society.
Subscription rates:
Full Membership: £45 - including subscriptions and entry to our 10 monthly concerts.
Standard Membership: £10 plus £5 admission per concert.
Non members and visitors: £7 (visiting members of other organ societies £5).
For more details contact their President, Carl De La Mare or Secretary, Brenda De La Mare on the number above.
