He has sold out Carnegie Hall in New York several times! Fletcher began guitar study at the age of 7. In 1980, he was the youngest student in the master class taught by Jose Tomas, of Spain, Andres Segovia’s teaching assistant. He made his professional debut at the age of 15, with the Brasstown Concert Association in North Carolina. The guitarist is in demand in cultural venues throughout the country, and has appeared many times on radio and television, including National Public Radio. Fletcher’s recordings — The Art of the Classical Guitar, A Peter Fletcher Recital, Fedrico Mompou: Guitar Works, and Peter Fletcher Plays Erik Satie — have all received critical acclaim. Fletcher’s newest CD, Peter Fletcher Plays Baroque Music for Guitar, was released last October. The public is invited, no reservations required.

  Free Estate Planning Seminar
                                          Tuesday March 19 at 6:30 pm.

Have you done your estate planning yet? Initially we stay occupied making certain we can pay the bills.
If we are fortunate, we gradually accumulate money and assets. It's that "accumulating" thing that leads us to
estate planning. Some people take estate planning seriously. Some do it by default. Everyone has an estate
plan which they design or one which the legislature designs.
Local attorney Latriealle Wheat leads this seminar. Whether you are well-read on the subject, or know very little, you will likely find the information helpful.
*What happens to my assets when I die if I have signed no Will or trust document?
* How can I be assured that my assets reach the people I intend to benefit?
* How can I accomplish the transfer of the assets with the minimum possible administrative costs and
tax liability.
* What is a probate asset? What is a non-probate asset?
These and more will be answered. Bring in your questions as we explore state planning education.
