They Have Gone Home
One event we love to go to each year is the Itasca Family Music Festival. There we see lots of our homeschooling friends (and some that don't homeschool but that isn't so common) and get to meet new ones too. We hear lots of wonderful music played mostly by family bands in the Bluegrass style. They have really good bands on the main stage and then at various times there are side stages that are open for anybody to sign up to sing and play at. Aaron and I did that at one of the stages. They also have workshops that you can go to and this year there was a duet contest which was really fun and I got to be a scorekeeper for that.
People come from all over the country to go to this. If you like good family friendly entertainment you might want to check it out.
What a neat event! My youngest LOVES, and always has, bluegrass music! He dreams of playing the fiddle or violin and is anxiously awaiting his 5th birthday when a fellow homeschool family will begin teaching violin in our area. We may have to add this event to our travel bucket list.
ReplyDeleteThat would be really neat if you could come! I hope he is able to learn to play the violin/fiddle and love it!
