PROGRAMS
Friday Kids’ and Teens Bluegrass Camp Introduction
(Friday 6 p.m. to 7 p.m.)
Bring the little ones and the bigger ones to a musical workshop just for them!
All are welcome. Bluegrass band “To be Announced” will demonstrate bluegrass instruments, singing, dancing and how to play and sing together the bluegrass way. Kids and teens are welcome to join into the workshop, so bring your instruments and talents to have a fun time.
Kids’ and Teens Bluegrass Music Camp
(Saturday, 10:30 – 11:30 A.m. and 2 – 3 p.m.; Sunday, 10 – 11 a.m. + performance time Sunday at 11:30 a.m.)
With parents’ or guardians’ permission, kids can participate in Bluegrass Kids’ Camp, hosted by Gerry Higbie and Bluegrass band TBA. Camp meets for one hour at a time and culminates Sunday at 11:30 a.m. with a kids’ stage performance.
Kids are asked to attend each of the Camp sessions. Kids can bring an acoustic instrument (guitar, banjo, fiddle, bass, mandolin, Ukulele) and learn to play the tunes as of yet to be determined. Classes are geared to the beginner, and advancing players are welcome. Kids can also play a practiced, individual tune of choice on stage. Bring one old time, old time country/gospel, folk or bluegrass number.
Mother’s Day Craft
(Saturday, noon)
After more than 20 years of creative and devoted service to the Children’s Mothers Day gift program, Christine Giuffre is turning her glue gun and scissors over to Juanita McAdams. THANK YOU Christine! Welcome Juanita.
For many years we have presented a kids’ craft project at noon on Saturday. The kiddos will make a lovely gift for Mom. Its a good idea to wear old clothes in case of spills.
