Columbus, OH May 7 - 9 we spent at the Central Ohio Folk Festival. This was the first time we had attended this festival. In fact the first time we attended any folk or dulcimer festival in Ohio. Except for the weather this was a fun festival held in a fantastic Columbus Metro Park. Besides workshops for dulcimer, guitar, autoharp, songwriting, spoons, fiddle, penny whistle there were performances on two stages every hour of the festival. The evening concert performers were outstanding. As we all huddled together in the big tent trying to keep warm the sounds of

James Keelaghan http://web.me.com/jameskeelo/Keeloweb/KEELOWEB.html warmed the crowd. We had never seen any of these performers. Boy! What we have been missing. Norene and I learned many new tips and tunes during our classes.
