All right, people, we've finally whipped this thing into shape! Here is the schedule for this year's Getaway! This link takes you to Saturday's schedule, which contains a link at the top that will take you to Sunday. And Dean has incorporated a very cool feature which allows you to place your cursor on a workshop name and see the descriptive blurb.

Do note that the schedule is still subject to change, though we really don't have leeway to change it much. If you are a workshop leader and we have you scheduled in two places at once, then we'll change it. If you just want to be in two places at once, well, join the club. We've tried to have somewhat fewer workshops, with some of them longer than in the past, which should help people catch at least parts of the sessions they're interested in.

Remember all that talk earlier in this thread about "paired songwriting"? Well, we're going to try it. Folks will sign up when they arrive (or anytime until Saturday lunch), pairs will be assigned -- drawn from a hat -- right after lunch, and then you'll have 24 hours or so to come up with a song to be presented at the workshop on Sunday afternoon.

And Jacqui is putting together a mummers play to be presented at the Saturday evening concert -- if you'd like to be part of it, just come to the rehearsal workshop on Saturday afternoon.

Of course there's lots more as well: all of your old favorites like ballads, sea songs, and Gospel, plus plenty of new topics as well. I think it looks great!

See you all at the Getaway!
