2010 Old-Time Week (More details will be available shortly.) Week 5 August 8-15, 2010 Tuition: $440 (includes Festival) Our Old-Time Week staff in 2010 features some old friends and some wonderful new additions to the Augusta world.  Coordinator Joe Newberry [left photo], a long-time Augusta staff member, has brought folks from this region of the country and points beyond to share their talents.  The instructors are not only some of the finest players in the world, but are also outstanding teachers.   Charlie Walden, Ken Jackson, Dave Bing [right], and Andy Fitzgibbon will teach fiddle. Banjo will be taught this year by Riley Baugus, Cathy Barton, and Rebekah Weiler. Bass will be taught by Joe DeJarnette; guitar will be taught by Tom Druckenmiller; and mountain dulcimer will be taught by Karen Mueller. New this year, Stringband for Kids will be taught by Anna Roberts Gevalt; and Stringband for Adults will be taught by Dave Para. During the week there will be regular evening jam sessions, slow jam sessions, song swaps, dances every night, concerts Tuesday and Thursday evenings, and performances by classes at the end of the week. Old-Time Week runs concurrently with Vocal Week and Dance Week.
