The 3rd ANNUAL OLD TIME BANJO FESTIVAL IN Takoma Park MD and at the Birchmere were awesome. 250 people attended the contest and winner was Reed Martin. He got to perform on the evening concert which received a STELLAR review in the Washington Post:

Thanks for including us! we had a WONDERFUL time and were privileged to be there.

Anybody who missed it and can start planning ahead for next year: This is worth going to! (And the banjo contest is worth entering, and fun to see your friends)
