"Everytime I've been its been wonderful and it gets better every year. I always come away with lots of new knowledge but more importantly a new inspiration to play more music. It always gets me practicing." (Ross Beck, Talahassee, FL)
"Thanks to you and all of the other instructors for a fantastic weekend. This is my third Suwannee Banjo Camp, and each one has been a great learning experience. However, I have to say that the opportunity to meet and spend time with such a great group of banjo enthusiasts, fanatics, or whatever you call them has been an equal benefit." (John Catches, High Springs, FL )
"Well, it's hard to thank you for any thing new,... [but] camp, staff, planning a great variety of classes, all the hard work you and your staff put in to make this happen for us, I give my deepest thanks; for my next year's worth of homework, even more thanks!!" (Rick Dundas, Clearwater, FL)
"I loved every minute last weekend. "(Jeannie Greenfield, Trenton, FL)
" I'll be at the next one wherever it's held." (Bill Griffin, Atlanta, GA)
"I enjoyed the camp a great deal... I really enjoyed the diversity of interests and styles among the instructors... We talked about repeating the camp next year, and likely will do so. Maybe my grandson will come too. (Lew Hendrix, Makanda, IL)"
"I had a great time at the camp this year and learned a lot, certainly plenty to practice for a long time to come. Thanks for all you do to keep the tradition alive!" (Jim Ryan, Auburn, AL)
"I cannot tell you how much I appreciated this year's camp. I learned so much, and made so many very nice friendships. Once again, many, many thanks for a truly wonderful and uplifting experience!" (Harold Schiffman, Tallahassee, FL )
"I wouldn't miss next year's camp for the world, regardless of where it'll be held, (within reason). My biggest problem since leaving O'Leno has been to not talk too much about it and bore my wife to tears. It was a great experience!" (Dutch Schultz, Gainesville, FL )
I really valued the variety of information from all the instructors with such varied backgrounds. Being a band member, I was able to draw ideas and inspiration from Bob Carlin, Mark Johnson, Art Rosenbaum and Ken Perlman. How much more diverse can you get!!! Thanks for the mix . Thank you for all your hard work, it really paid dividends, and much more information than I can hope to distill over the next year. But then thats really a blessing -- to have so many ideas to choose from, and pick those most appropriate to my needs. (Ron Smith, Lakeland, FL )
"The camp was sensational, even better than last year. I feel real growth and have so much to work on!" (Ellen Stahl, Tamarak, FL)

This camp has really helped me broaden my scope... Many thanks to all for one of the best musical experiences!" (John Winston, El Paso, TX )
"I loved the Camp this year!! It just keeps getting better. The addition of the fiddle workshop was great. I brought three new people with me this year and they say they will all be returning." (Kathy Zemanek, St. Augustine, FL)
