2008 Schedule
of Events
Jamming
takes place anytime you can find a place and put folks together. There
is almost always jamming in the Cedar Forest Lodge, and some people
open their cabins to jamming as well.
All-day,
Friday and Saturday, browse the amazing music collection by John Hatton's
Cleff D'Ear and the banjo display by Lo Gordon, Cedar Mountain Banjos.
And
join us Saturday night for our rollicking contra dance, maybe
even sign up to become one of the bands that play!
Admission
to the dance is $5 if you are not already registered
as a BUW attendee. If you attend the Nashville
Country Dancers
contra Friday, February 29, look for a special discount
coupon to spend the entire day with us Saturday, March 8, for just $10
- a $5 discount off the regular one-day pass.
