Underneath the Spanish moss and the live oak trees, in the world’s greatest music venue, is a place where all kids can come and explore music with other kids (and some adult kids): The Suwannee Spirit Kids Music Camp. Several times a year, the Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park hosts a free three-day music weekend for kids aged 5-17.

Children participating in the camp receive instruction in various musical instruments, including fiddle, guitar, banjo, mandolin, harmonica, ukulele, vocals, and hand drums. They are treated to four two-hour lessons, a T-shirt making arts and crafts session, a Friday evening dinner, and a Sunday afternoon concert showcasing the children’s new accomplishments.

The instructors leading these sessions are experienced musicians who generously volunteer their time and energy to ensure that this event continues to positively impact the lives of young people in our community.
