Winter Folk Camp
March 5-8 2010
| Winter Folk Camp II
March 5-8, 2010
The Haliburton County Folk Society invites you to join us in a long weekend, one of a kind Folk Music experience for adults in the Haliburton Highlands. Building on the success of this year’s Winter Folk Camp (WFC), our second Camp has been extended by one day. WFC is again being held at YMCA Wanakita near Haliburton, Ontario and is intended to be a late winter, affordable get-away. There is lots of music (concerts, classes, workshops, song circles, jamming and so on) in pleasant wooded surroundings. The circumstances and camaraderie are convivial, the accommodations comfortable and the meals are delicious and nutritious. The program has been designed to engage novice players, more experienced musicians as well as interested, but not particularly musical, Folk Music devotees.
The dates are Friday evening, March 5 to Monday afternoon, March 8, 2010. Once again we will offer an “all inclusive” option (accommodation, meals and snacks, all programming including the ceilidhs, complimentary outdoor activities, yoga classes etc.) and a “semi-inclusive” (no accommodation) option. Tickets will also be available for the Saturday and Sunday evening ceilidhs.
We have engaged a group of talented and committed musicians who share our passion for providing our guests with the best musical experience we can. Their involvement in the camp extends beyond their classes, workshops and concerts and they look forward to sharing their time at Camp with you.
“Artists in Residence”
Rodrigo Chavez – Latin percussion and movement
Eve Goldberg - beginner guitar
Paul Mills (aka Curly Boy Stubbs) – advanced guitar
Linda Morrison – community choir
Ian Tamblyn – songwriting
Cindy Thompson-Butineau – fiddle
The website www.winterfolkcamp.com includes artist profiles, program description, accommodation description, registration information etc.
An “early bird” rate is offered for registrations prior to January 15th, 2010. This also adds your name for a draw on a wonderful 1 day experiential tour for 2, generously donated by “Yours Outdoors”. |
