Thanks to everyone who attended West Cascades Fiddle Camp last week. It was you that made it one of our best. The new location at Emerald Christian Academy worked very well and we have hopes for a long partnership with them. Tentatively, camp next year will be July 17 thru July 20 and after a brief rest break the committee will be back at work planning that camp.
Thanks again,

FIDDLE CAMP CANCELLED FOR 2021

The West Cascades Fiddle Camp is planned by a dedicated committee from District 6 of the Oregon Oldtime Fiddlers’ Association (OOTFA) consisting of Ken & Patti Luse, Amy Burrow, Jenny Jonak, Linda Danielson, Linda & Jerry Parks and our district chair, Ernie Connelly. We have tried in every way to go forward with Fiddle Camp 2021, but due to the inability to secure a spot to hold the camp this summer, as well as continuing restrictions from the Oregon Health Authority on summer camps due to COVID-19, the Fiddle Camp will not happen in 2021. We will miss all of you and look forward to planning this fall for a fiddle camp in summer 2022.

The West Cascades Fiddle Camp is planned by a dedicated committee from District 6 of the Oregon Oldtime Fiddlers’ Association (OOTFA) consisting of Ken & Patti Luse, Amy Burrow, Jenny Jonak, Linda Danielson, Linda & Jerry Parks and our district chair, Ernie Connelly. We have met virtually and in person several times this winter/spring, weighing in on finding a location and making it safe. At the end of April we are holding another meeting and will announce updates at that time.

We had looked forward to celebrating our 10th year of camp and sharing a great lineup of instructors, classes, workshops and jams . However, given the State of Oregon’s orders on social distancing and group sizes…our 10th year may be postponed again until 2022

West Cascades Fiddle Camp cancellation notice.
Another one has bit the dust. We held out as long as we could but with the Governor’s last proclamation, the committee had no choice but to cancel West Cascades Fiddle Camp and Workshops. Linda has already started the reimbursement process for those of you that were already registered. Thanks to everyone for the support and encouragement you have given us over the years and we certainly are looking forward to a great camp in 2021. Tentatively, we are looking at July 19 thru July 22 for next years camp. Put it in your calendar and we’ll see you there.
