Haystack Coffee House at the Tree of Life Unitarian Universalist Congregation, 5603 Bull Valley Road in McHenry, launches a new season of its popular Open Mic and Jam Nights from 7 to 10 p.m. Friday, Sept. 2.

The showcase for musicians of all types, poets and spoken word artists, comics, and even the occasional magician opens this year under new leadership.

Forrest Ransburg, Tree of Life's new music director, takes up the reins from Thomas Steffens who retired after long service this summer. Ransburg promises to keep up the tradition of quality variety entertainment.

Light refreshments including coffee, soft drinks, and water are available at no charge and there is no fee for admittance. A freewill offering will be taken to defray expenses.
