Just signed up for the St Pete camp. This will be my 3rd in St Pete, not sure I’m getting any better (my fault - lack of practice) but I always have a great time.

I’m a guitar player and just signed up but understand mandolin is full so there should be at least 9 other mandolin pickers there.

I see where 6 of the 7 dwarfs signed up for guitar at the St Pete Cabin Camp.
The one who couldn’t make it is not Happy!

I’m not fishing on Friday but I’ll be at Seven C’s for the Purple Hulls (Ben’s sisters) on Friday night. Ben and his staff always make it friendly and fun, the 'learning is amazing, and just being around like minded pickers is a blast. But I need to be careful what I ask for and watch my punctuation. There is a big difference between “No, more banjo” and “No more banjo”.

St Pete Cabin Camp complete and it delivered on many levels: Friday fishing trip, Fri night concert by the Purple Hulls, and a Saturday camp that had too many positives to list. But, huge shout-out to the Fell Family from Wisconsin. They were the hit of the Camper Concert and the after-party jam session. Sure we’ll see them again. Another shout-out to Ben’s staff, hope he knows how good a Team he has.

If anyone is considering going to a cabin camp, I’d recommend it 100%!!! Thank you @BanjoBen for all the work you put into the camps, it really is sooo much fun and a great experience; hopefully we will see you and your great team again soon! I can’t wait until next time!!!:smiley:
