BB Inaugural Camp Photos Videos and Contact Info

I don’t think so. The ages at this camp ran the gambit and everyone got something out of it.

This camp was set up specifically for beginners, and everyone knew that going in. Some folks there were very proficient on one instrument, so they attended the camp for an instrument they weren’t as well versed with.

This may be a possibility. Ben would have to customize the lessons so that the info wasn’t specific to a given instrument, or he’d have to do 3 times the work for each skill level. Might be tough.

I think Ben is constantly thinking about ways to improve the camp. It was a resounding success, don’t get me wrong, but Ben is Ben. He’s always looking for a way to outdo himself. :wink:

There wasn’t no “trying” for me. My eyeballs turned in to water fountains during “Things I Wish My Daddy Knew” but I knew what was about to happen as soon as they played those opening notes. That song gets me every time. Doubly so when I see them play it live and that was my second time for that.

I didn’t realize that Penny was recovering from laryngitis until after they were done. Talk about a trooper!

And it was even after that performance that she insisted she could still sing Dancin On My Grave so I could get that video I posted. Them Clark’s have music in their blood!

I’ve been so busy trying to get caught up on work I haven’t had a chance to touch my banjo since the camp until this morning. Inside the resonator still smells like camp fire. It made me smile. :slight_smile:

Yep, it’s called “Never Gonna Let Me Go” and Philippians 1:6 is the primary Scripture, though I believe there’s Romans 8 and Ephesians 1 all over it :wink:
