Just wanted to give everyone a heads up on a banjo camp happening in March here in Florida. The Camp is mostly Old-Time style banjo but they have added Bill Keith as their bluegrass banjo instructor for the camp this year.

Here are the details from www.suwanneebanjocamp.com

Event: Suwanee Banjo Camp

Dates: March 16-18, 2007

Location: O'Leno State Park, High Springs, Florida

We still have room for more students. Sign up today!

The Suwanee Banjo Camp will again take place at beautiful O'Leno State Park, on the banks of the Santa Fe River (a tributary of the Suwanee) near High Springs, Florida. Come study 5-string banjo with some of today's best players and teachers. Our program features hands-on classes, demonstrations, and a big faculty concert, and still leaves lots of time for jamming with your fellow banjo enthusiasts.

SBC is primarily devoted to "old-time" banjo (that is, clawhammer and old-time fingerpicking), but this year we are introducing a special bluegrass-banjo track.
Our old-time banjo staff for 2007 includes Bob Carlin, Mark Johnson, Brad Leftwich, Chuck Levy, Mary Z. Cox, Reed Martin and Ken Perlman, plus guest fiddler Alan Jabbour. Our bluegrass instructor is none other than the legendary musician, Bill Keith. Click here for instructors' bios.

Starting and Ending Times: Registration Opens 12 noon, Friday March 16; the first class is at 2:30 PM Friday. Camp ends following lunch at 1:30 PM, Sunday March 18.
