Schedule
Our days will be quite full! Beginning at 10 am each day, instructors will lead you in workshops and specific songwriting-related tasks. We break for lunch at 12:30 pm. Afternoons are dedicated to your writing, and from 3-6 pm instructors will host 30-minute one-on-one tutorials on a sign-up basis. Each participant will be allotted one private session with each instructor in the week. Dinner is served from 7-8 pm, and at 8:30 pm there is a nightly performance around the campfire of our day’s work. On the last night of the camp, we will have dinner together at the legendary Gumboot Cafe in Roberts Creek, followed by a concert in which all participants and instructors are invited to perform for a small audience of locals. Let’s share our new songs with the beautiful people of Roberts Creek, BC!

Food
It will be harvest season during camp time and we will be on a farm! So expect to be eating local organic delights right from the property and neighbouring farms. We value contributing to the community we are part of -- so we will do our best to use locally sourced and seasonal ingredients and products.
All your food and drinks (except for alcohol) are provided. There will be three deluxe meals per day, all-day snacks, and delicious drinks. |
