If you are new to week-long events, remember it’s good to pace yourself as you enjoy everything. It’s smart to plan some time to practice and “digest” all you will learn and get enough rest. Jam sessions, the marketplace, concerts, the open stage and even electives can be optional.

Commuting Participants: For mid-day or early evening breaks you are welcome to relax in the comfortable “Living Space” lounges of Norton Residence Hall.
