Subject: RE: Review of Camp Sasamat (music camp)
I was there,too. For the first year in the three that I've been there it did not rain. Yay!

This weekend camp is a wonderful camp for singers of traditional ballads. Jon Bartlett and Rika Rubesaat give an ever-varying introduction to Child Ballads, making use of the repertories of whatever singers they have on site that is worth the entire cost of camp (about $55 US).

The camp is small, limited to seventy or so, making it possible to meet and sing with everyone there if you so choose. As Mary said, the food is great, featuring coconut-milk-based curried soup and spanokopita and pecan rolls in addition to items Mary mentioned.
