Camp Bluegrass review online

Camp Bluegrass 2007 group photoThe Lubbock Avalanche Journal ran a nice feature last week about Camp Bluegrass, the annual week-long bluegrass immersion workshop hosted by nearby South Plains College in Levelland, TX. The camp ran from July 22-27, and the piece in the Avalanche Journal was published last Thursday.

The paper’s web site, Lubbockonline.com, has also put together a nice multimedia slide show, featuring audio from the workshops along with still images. It runs for about a minute and a half.

New this year was a special focus on bringing young students into Camp Bluegrass, and judging from some of the images, it looks like the move was successful.
