CARLSBAD, CA. SUMMER SCHOOL of BAGPIPING, June 17-24, 2011

This from Society Member Cliff Armas

Terry McCarthy and I have been attending the Summer School of Bagpiping every year. I have attended the last four years and Terry a tad longer than I. It is a fantastic school. For one week you get to be immersed in piping or drumming and better yet get to go out for a toddy or two every night. The instructors are literally world class.

I received an e-mail from John Keys,CAPT, LAFD (Ret.), giving the dates for the school in 2011. John helps organize the school.

Here is the info about the school and tuition. The school is held at the Army and Navy Military Academy in Carlsbad. The prices are: $775 for room and board (including linens), and $615 for day use (including 3 meals per day). The dates are June 17 to June 24. If you have any questions, talk to Terry or yours truly. I know it is some major coin but worth the money. Put it this way, a week of golfing or skiing would be more expensive.
