Camp Details

Creekside Fiddle Camp or Jump Start Camp?

​

Jump Start Fiddle Camp is ideal for children ages 5-9 -- from complete beginners through the end of Level 4 of FiddleQuest. 

​

Jumpstart is designed to be a nurturing environment with activities centered around music through singing, dancing, games, story time, splashing around in Lithia Creek and small group fiddle instruction.

​

In the past, very young players who happened to be advanced in their playing would be part of the Creekside Fiddle Camp. But we realize that the children, even though they have fast fingers, are still in such a magical world and the Jump Start camp is perfect for them. 

​

​Here's a quick guide if you are wondering which camp is right for your child. (The grade refers to the grade your student will be in the Fall of 2025.)​
