Can anyone attend cabin camps? I am a gold pick member, but I know a banjo player (non-member) that might be interested in the camp.
I saw in your last email a camp upcoming in Maryland. I saw Montana listed below it with dates, so when and where in Maryland are you hosting a camp so I can look at my schedule. Thanks for an awesome learning site!
My son and I are very interested in the Nashville Experience. It’s his graduation gift if we can make it happen. I would love to reserve a spot if we could. My son Ryan is quite the banjo picker and Ben is his hero. Thanks.
Rick Thomas, Hayden, Idaho.
Regarding the Bigfork Montana Cabin Camp. Have any interest that Bruce Weber, of Weber Mandolin fame, lives there and now has a Lutherie shop just out of town? If so, let me know and I can send you contact information or speak with Bruce, whatever you would like me to do. Cwby Tim DeRoche ( a signed-up banjo student… : )
No Eddie, we do not require proof of vaccination.
I read your Covid policy. Pretty clear but you didn’t mention the v word. Is proof of vaccination required?
Thanks
