Repeating what Charlie said on the previous thread, you don't have to be an FSGW member to come to the Getaway.

If you're bringing several people from one family, it will probably save money if you join FSGW anyway.

Lots of people show up during the day on Saturday if they have other commitments. Bob Zentz had a Saturday gig a couple of years ago. He arrived for the late Saturday singing, led a concertina workshop and gave a concert Sunday morning, then left by noon Sunday for his next gig... a real "drive-by performace" ... and added a WHOLE lot to our weekend... so you can see we're very flexible.

The registration form lets you specify pretty clearly how long you'll be here. Just one thing: If you change your mind and are coming earlier, let us know in time so we can have meals ordered for you!

Now for the program. PLEASE post to this thread if there are workshops and/or concerts you'd like to see in the program. If you have an idea for a workshop you might lead, PM me or post it here. (Fortunato and RiB have already posted, other folks have e-mailed me.) I can't always include every workshop that is suggested, but it helps so much to get people's input and offers of help.

More on this later, got to go now.
