- Wernick Method Jam Camp + Retreat Center + Fall Foliage = Fun!Warwick Center, Warwick, NJUSD 300.00
You're invited to a weekend-long Wernick Method jam camp!
What's special about this weekend is that we'll be hosting it at the beautiful Warwick Retreat and Conference Center in Warwick, NY in the height of the fall foliage season.
The weekend will include all the best parts of a Wernick camp - guided jams, harmony singing, and plenty of practice learning new songs and getting better at jamming. We'll also have evening fires, heavenly stargazing, walks in nature, and nighttime jamming.
Set on a 450 acre nature preserve, the site offers hotel style lodging with private baths, hiking and walking trails, and plenty of space for jamming both indoors and out.
The weekend includes 2 nights' lodging and 5 delicious meals (Saturday breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and Sunday breakfast and lunch.) Warwick is available via public transportation from NYC.
Enjoy friendly conversation, evening fires in the main lounge, stargazing, brilliant fall colors, and of course, JAMMING, JAMMING, JAMMING!
You can see the schedule and other details, as well as register to attend, at this link.
I hope you'll join me for this weekend of nature, jamming, connection and fun. I promise you'll leave a more confident musician and happier person.
The jam camp is $300 and lodging is $385/pp for a single and $325 for a double. You are able to attend the camp without staying onsite.
