Singtime Frolics is Portland FolkMusic Society's annual weekend music retreat. Join us deep in the woods at beautiful Camp Adams (near Molalla, a half-hour south of Portland). We do music together, rest and catch up with each other’s lives, learn teach and share. Begin on Friday evening; end, sleepy-eyed, in the early afternoon on Sunday; remember for the rest of the year.
She teaches songwriting, has also composed choral works, has performed nationally, and is about to release her twelfth recording. Linda will give workshops on Songwriting, on Singing Harmony, and is planning one on Hispanic Songs
The weekend includes vocal and instrumental workshops, song circles, dancing, maybe a little poetry, and a participants’ evening concert, open to all. You can learn something about singing, or playing, or songwriting. You can bring songs or tunes to play for us. You can organize a workshop. You can explore a kind of music you haven’t paid attention to before. There will be space and time for instrumental jamming and for hiking forest trails around the camp (bring boots, March can be wet).
Accommodations include heated dorm rooms with bunk beds and hot showers
The fare is good quality camp food.
$90 (adults); $60 (children ages 4-11)
Late registration (after March 15): $110 (adults); $80 (children)
If you have specific questions, or to get on the mailing list, contact singtimefrolics@gmail.com or call call Hal Day 503-626-1537.
