National Mountain Dulcimer Contest :)

National Mountain Dulcimer Contest :)

Wednesday, September 16, 2020Wed, Sep 16, 2020

Walnut Valley Festival, Winfield, KS

Just won 1st place in the Deep South Dulcimer Contest in Petal, Mississippi and one of the prizes was a admission ticket to the Walnut Valley Festival and an entry into the National Mountain Dulcimer Championships. The festival runs from September 16-20 th 2020.
And of course--this is a great dulcimer adventure & I plan to go--the bumper sticker is already on my Highlander.
Not sure if I will be leaving from Tallahassee, Fl or Cashiers NC yet--but Bob probably cannot get off work this time of year--so looking for some possible house concerts or dulcimer or banjo workshops on the way out or possibly the way back. Also--may be looking for a travel buddy for the trip. Drop me an email if you look like you would host a small house concert and/or workshop on the way to or from Tallahassee or NC to Winfield KS and back :)
