Robert here. Down in SW Florida. Just registered for Athens in April. Had signed up last year but had to cancel due to unexpected surgery for the wife. Love northern GA. Spend time up in Dahlonega over the years. Been a lifetime Gold Pick member for a few years now. Going to lay out a focused learning plan for Cabin Camp. I’m about half way through Beginners Track, just getting through Bens Breakdown. I did jump ahead and learn Nine Pound Hammer, as I just love the song. Also have You Are My Sunshine worked well. Need to begin to really focus on backup for these and all the suggested songs. Have a few dozen hours into Amazing Grace. Unclouded Day starts October 1. I hope others begin to share their journey as we move through winter and into camp.

I just signed up for the Athens Cabin Camp. My name is Dixon and I’ve been playing mandolin a couple of years. I live in South Georgia and can’t wait for the camp. Looks like fun!

I look forward to meeting you at camp! My last camp was April in Texas. Definitely pay attention to the camp song list for Athens. You’ll want to know at least the rhythm for those songs (chord progressions).

Thanks for the Athens Song List tip! I’ve been working on those. I should have the chords progressions down soon. This is my first camp! I know it’ll be a lotta fun! I’ve been working on a few more like Shady Grove in Dm, Long Journey Home(Two Dollar Bill) in G, Dark Hollow in G, Bury Me Beneath the Willow, and a few more.
