"Hello,
I found this jam after just moving to the area. I am looking for some good picking in the area. I live in Bridgeport currently. I wanted to get some more information about this jam. I play mandolin and guitar."

thanks for your interest, funny thing is you can't reply to messages on this site!
Bring both instruments and your singing voice! the jam is up and down in Colfax lately. So, you might have to go a couple times to hit a good Jam night. I also recommend Percival Hall WVU morgantown, Thursday night Jam at the Brew pub in Morgantown or Our favorite other jam at the baptist temple in Fairmont (awesome fiddle driven old time Jam).
Hope that helps -JOE
