"This camp provides a very unique opportunity for banjo players of all skill levels to work directly with regional and nationally known instructors in a very casual environment. The relatively small size of the camp gives students a very personalized experience not offered by other banjo camps".
Jason Homey, Lead Instructor
"Our goal is to provide high quality bluegrass banjo instruction in an intensive, intimate setting that is FUN! Our instructors are carefully selected for both their proficiency in bluegrass banjo playing and their skill in teaching. We limit enrollment to sixty students with three primary instructors and two assistant instructors, ensuring a low student:teacher ratio. This is an important distinction from banjo camps with much larger numbers of students".
Gary Eller, Weiser Banjo Camp Director

"My intention with this contest is to 1) establish a banjo contest as an important part of the National Old Time Fiddle Contest and Festival and 2) provide an opportunity for banjo players at all levels to compete and play in front of a live audience. Above all, we try to make our contest FUN for contestants AND audience."
Gary Eller, Contest Director
