Banjo Ben's Cabin Camp - St. Petersburg, FL! March 4, 2023!

Come join me in St. Petersburg, only 20 minutes from the beautiful gulf beaches!

INSTRUMENTS: Banjo, Guitar, Mandolin! Only 8 spots each!

LENGTH OF CAMP: 1 Day

DATE:Saturday, March 4, 2023, 9AM to 9PM EST

LOCATION: Beautiful private residence in St. Pete, FL, only 20 minutes from the St. Pete beaches!

PRICE:$329 each including lunch and supper, with supper guest passes available for purchase, $25 each!

Skill Level:Established beginner through intermediate. Must be able to play basic rhythm chords along with slow songs and have a desire to begin soloing/improvising. If you feel super comfortable jamming with pros, this camp may be too basic for you. If you can't play simple chords with slow songs, this camp may be too advanced for you.

Atmosphere:This camp is an intimidation-free zone! No one will be put on the spot or made to feel dumb! Mess ups are encouraged, because that means you're trying. Believe me, I mess up all the time. 

Preparation:The best way to prepare is play with my PickAlong lessons found HERE! You don't have to be able to play solos, but it's good to familiarize yourself with the melody and try to learn the chord progression. There is no stress, y'all. Just do what you can to prepare, and I'll take you from there!

I keep it small. I want to get to know you and join you on your pickin' journey. I'll have some of the BEST instructors in the biz, who happen to be my family and best friends: Katy Lou Clark on banjo, Penny Lea Clark on mandolin, and me, Banjo Ben, on guitar!

We will have GREAT food! We'll provide a continental breakfast, lunch, and a fantastic BBQ dinner. 

The price is $329, which includes:

• Small group sessions and personal attention!
• 3 meals!
• Over $50 in gear & accessories!

Price does not include:

• Lodging, which is amply available at nearby hotels.

4. Can I bring more than one instrument? You can, but you'll need to commit to one instrument for the learning portion of the camp. When it comes to jamming, you can play whatever you want!
