Group and one-on-one workshops on five-string banjo, tenor banjo and guitar with Pat & Patrick Costello, jamming and great food on the banks of the Chesapeake Bay. We will not separate people by playing level, instrument or style. We encourage interaction because everyone has something to learn and everyone has something to share. If you think you don't know anything you should come. If you think you know everything you should come. The cost for the weekend including food and lodging is $200.00.

That said, it hasn't been too bad lately because there has been a pretty active spraying campaign. Now that there are million-dollar condos being built along the downtown waterfront the state is trying like hell to get things under control. Everybody coming to the event (and we have already have people coming from as far away as the West Coast - and a father and son is making the trip from Spain) is going to be staying at the conference center in the park, so we'll be inside at night when the bugs come out in force. -Patrick |
