IN ISOLATED ADIRONDACK COMMUNITIES, music and story-telling provided not only respite from work but a means of passing along traditions and values. Barn dances were entertainment, recreation, and a way to connect with neighbors. Relive these traditions as you get your rhythm on in an Adirondack music and dance workshop at Great Camp Sagamore. Develop your talents and abilities, discover those you didn’t even know you had, join in lots of shared activities, and enjoy a grand finale group show where everyone is guaranteed a standing ovation! Instructors include well-known regional musicians and storytellers.

This long-weekend features Adirondack music and dance, even songwriting, with many local artists. There will be opportunities to learn new instruments, new tunes and songs, and to learn about the traditions behind what you will play. Bring your musical instrument(s) of choice (including your voice!), and play and learn in the company of others.

Instructors include Adirondack and North Country musicians, song writers, and story tellers, Dan Berggren, Dan Duggan, Peggy Lynn, John Kirk, Trish Miller, and Kent and Nanette Knappenberger.

Along with the music, enjoy campfires, bowling in Sagamore’s historic outdoor bowling alley, dining in the historic Dining Hall, paddling on secluded Sagamore Lake, hiking on miles of Adirondack Forest Preserve trails, or just relaxing by the water.
