The
Bluegrass Camps for Kids will once again return for the 2013 festival.
This year the camp will be a three day bluegrass and folk  music
program for children aged 9 to 18, organized and taught by members of
the band Finnders & Youngberg. Children will pick from a wide range
of classes, including all levels of guitar, bass, banjo, fiddle, and
vocals. Campers will also experience band classes with their peers,
daily jams, square dances, art projects, and optional private lessons.
The Camp will conclude with a main stage performance on Friday, July
12th. Click for more information and registration.
This
website is the
source for information about the festival, so be
sure
and check back here often to keep up with the latest news about all the
activities, happenings, and plans. We
also
update Facebook when something is updated
on the website.
We have another fantastic lineup coming together for 2013 including The Byron Berline Band and Don Edwards! Check
out their bios in Bands.
There
will be lots of fun in 2013, including the Wyoming
Mandolin and Banjo Championships, an Old
Time Fiddle Contest, and a Guitar
contest too, with the winners of the mandolin, banjo, and
fiddle contest all winning guaranteed slots at the Walnut
Valley Festival contests in Winfield,
Kansas. The Band Scramble will be held on Saturday afternoon,
and there
will be a variety of workshops
hosted by our performers. We'll have instrument
raffles, food and craft vendors, a
pancake breakfast, great folks, and lots of jamming. It all
added up
to a super time.
 Each year, the
beautiful Big Horn
Mountains frame the festival at the
Johnson County Fairgrounds where you will enjoy the true festival
experience. Bring your tent, camper, or RV and spend the
entire weekend
with us and enjoy some of the best parkin' lot pickin' in the Rocky
Mountains.
