Posted on behalf of the Board of the North East Tionol:
Registration is now open for the North East Tionol, which will take place Friday, October 24th through Sunday, October 26th, 2008. We are returning to Gavin’s Golden Hill Resort in East Durham, New York, where a cracking good time will once again be had by all!
Announcing this year’s lineup of fabulous piping instructors (drumroll, please):
Mick O’Brien
Cormac Cannon

Pat D’Arcy
In addition, we will offer a reedmaking workshop by Benedict Koehler and intermediate/advanced fiddle classes by Patrick Ourceau and Breda Keville.
Participants registering before August 15, 2008 will pay only $100 instead of the full $115.
Note that we’re offering a scholarship this year to cover a student’s tuition for the weekend and $100 toward room and board. To be eligible, you must be under the age of 25 and have been playing the pipes for at least six months. See the scholarship application form (PDF file) on the website for details.
