Recharge your batteries between summers!
It feels like there's never enough time
between classes at the summer
sessions,
so here's a set of events with nothing but.
Sleep late, jam with friends, nap, dance, party.
No schedule, no classes, no hassle, no hurry.
Families are welcome. Reduced prices for children 12 and
under.
Feel free to call retreat organizer Fl!p Breskin if you have
questions or would like a personal invitation.

Wednesday, December 31, 2008, 1 PM - Sunday, January 4, 2009, 1PM.
Our first meal will be the New Years Eve feast, but you can arrive any time after breakfast. Cost: $280. Deposit: $140. Pay in full by December 15. $5 discount if paid in full by November 15. Contact Fl!p Breskin for the cost of shorter stays, or for children.
We expect around 40 people for this one. A peaceful, engaging way to
welcome in the New Year in a warm, welcoming community. We have an
intimate swing dance and a wonderful New Years Eve feast in addition
to the delights of jamming.
President's Day Weekend (U.S.) Friday, February 13, 1 PM - Monday, February 16, 1 PM
Cost $245. Deposit $125. Pay in full by February 1st. $5 discount if paid in full by January 5th.
Usually chock full with around 150 participants. An intense, high
energy musical extravaganza. Winter Retreat tends to fill up right
away. I recommend registering immediately if you want to get in.
If you're new to jamming, you definitely want to come with
a buddy for this one.
Friday-Sunday, May 1-3, 2009. Cost $165. Deposit $80. Pay in full in advance. $5 discount if paid in full by March 15.
Probably 20 to 30 participants. My favorite retreat. Very
relaxed. It's like an old fashioned weekend-long house party with
lots of folks to play with and plenty of space to play with them. At
Spring Retreat I find I often have time to sit and make music with
folks I haven't ever had a chance to hang out and jam with before,
with deeply satisfying results.
