30 Jul 24 - 06:28 PM (#4206300) Subject: FSGW Getaway weekend From: GUEST,Nancy King The Folklore Society of Greater Washington's annual Getaway weekend is coming up SOON! From Friday evening, Sept. 27 to Monday morning Sept. 30, we'll have a great weekend of singarounds, concerts, jamming and fun in a supportive environment at a beautiful Maryland riverside retreat. The time to register is now! Go to www.fsgw.org/getaway, and you'll find a description of the event and a registration form. We have a fine lineup of special guests this year: Sally Rogers and Howie Bursen, Marcy Cochran, David Jones, and the fine West Virginia trio Bare Bones (Bill and Becky Kimmons and Dock Cutlip). All of these folks will be leading workshop sessions, doing concerts, and joining us for all the events -- planned and spontaneous -- of the weekend. Hope you'll join us! |

The choir season will be just started, and I’m responsible for issuing the music. Also, I found the long drive from Stratford very trying last year — all those hours of interstate, and the New York Turnpike Authority is still dunning me for a four-dollar toll I paid last October. I hope the participants post lots of photos where I can see them. |
