Info on Dulcimer U is now up--I've decided to go (I'll be in Nina Zanetti's morning class) and my husband, Craig, has surprised me by saying he wants to go, too.  He'll be in the dulcimer building class all day, but will attend some of the jams and all the concerts at night.

I've been several times, so if anyone has a question, just ask!  I'm looking forward to meeting some FOTMD members there!

What a nice surprise ..... will do.

You are welcome! If you have time, track me down so we can meet at the event.

Oh thanks so much Shawn. Between what you and Ken said, I'm anxious to see who's teaching, etc. Wish they'd get the details up on the web site ... :). Actually looking forward to driving thru Blue Ridge Mtns. & visiting the Scots/Irish settler museum I believe is on campus. Your thoughts are great and thank you so much. Barb

I highly recommend staying in the dorm. Most of the classes are in the same building, and there are a lot of things that go on outside of classes that you would not have access to if you stay offsite. It's the best run dulcimer event I've been to. Concerts are wonderful, all of them including the "intimate concerts" that you sign up for when you arrive.

This week long event is coming up & I wondered if anyone has gone who can suggest whether to stay at the university or at a nearby town? Haven't found anyone who can give suggestions based on experience. Janita Baker will be teaching all week and I've got one of her Blue Lions so I want to go. Any thoughts? Thanks ahead of time. Barb
