Thread Name: 2005 Getaway Program Information
Subject: RE: 2005 Getaway Program Information
For myself, I tend to prefer participatory or sing-around workshops--maybe 'cuz I just sing for love and the fun of it--and what I love most about the Getaway is the sharing.

Some random ideas:

Songs of celebration
Great songs we never sing anymore
The Songs of Woody Guthrie
Campfire songs
Songs of the Family
Songs of the Sacred (much broader than Christian gospel)
Occupational Songs
Anything Goes

And of course--hobos, tramps, trains, labor movement, peace movement,
humor, jug, skiffle, blues, love, death, Mom, assorted wars, home states....there never is a dearth of ideas from which to choose, is there?
