 Currently this singing is being trialled as a Shenandoah Harmony singing, which is a different book to the Sacred Harp but in the same shapenote tradition. Some loaner books may be available for the session but the music can also be accessed via the below linked website, therefore if you have a wifi enabled tablet that you can read the words from, it might be a good idea to bring it along.
