In Goderich, Ontario, the Celtic Roots Festival and its associated music camp, the Celtic College, are going ahead this year (unless, of course, something truly bad happens).

Here's a link to the festival website: https://www.celticfestival.ca

For those who don't like to faff around, here's a link to the Celtic College registration page: https://www.celticfestival.ca/celtic-college

Goderich is a delightful town on the east shore of Lake Huron. Launched in 1993, the Celtic Roots Festival was founded by a couple of high school teachers who wanted to promote vernacular acoustic music in the community while adding a major tourist draw.

I have attended the college almost every year since 2000, and the festival most years. It's always a good time, especially for families, and the music instruction -- particularly strong for fiddlers and people who play things with strings and frets -- is always excellent.

For your consideration, Catters!
