Hi Friends of SBC,

My apologies if you receive multiple notices of this year's camp.  I do hope to see you soon. 

Chuck

Hello Friends,

Greetings from Gainesville, Florida.  Well, we are well into February, which places us just about a month before Suwannee Banjo Camp, March 16-18^th (with an extra day on March 15^th for those who want to come early).  Our camp takes place at O’Leno State Park on the beautiful Santa Fe River in High Springs Florida.  The river actually disappears, flowing underground to reemerge miles away.  Each year the camp seems to get better, with plenty of chances to learn, to share and to dive deep into the river of banjo.  Our world-renowned instructors cover a wide territory of banjo, from traditional and more modern styles of bluegrass, through clawhammer and up-picking old-time styles, and including minstrel, parlor (classical) banjo and even the African ekonting (akonting).  We also have wonderful old-time fiddle track, plus classes in guitar, banjo set-up and more.

Our Instructors:
Old Time Banjo - Greg C. Adams, Cathy Barton Para, Mac Benford, Paul Brown, Mark Johnson, Brad Leftwich, Chuck Levy, & Ken Perlman
 
Bluegrass Banjo - Scott Anderson, Janet Davis, James McKinney, Alan Munde, & Tony Trischka
 
Old-time Fiddle - Erynn Marshall

Our Preliminary 2012 Schedule is now up on our website www.suwanneebanjocamp.com, click on the link near the top of the page ("Hot Off the Press: Our 2012 Schedule"), or go to our menu, select "Program & Schedule" and click on the link labeled "2012 Schedule."

Once again, here are the particulars.

Dates: Fri. thru Sun, March March 16-18, 2012 Location: O' Leno State Park, High Springs, Florida

The SBC "Extra Day" is Thurs evening March 15 thru Friday morning March 16.

Chuck Levy and Ken Perlman

	jayh says: 2/29/2012 11:11:43 AM Ok, now for real I'm going to register! I assume there is still room in the cabins, and for the extra day?
	ChuckJo says: 2/29/2012 11:50:11 AM There still is room, for camp and cabins, but we are filling up. In fact, we have added an additional tent for calsses and an additional instructor in bluegrass, Gerald Jones. Also two finger expert, Chip Arnold is offering a class. Please com and join us
