The 2020 ‘Vous is scheduled for  May 14-17 at Hull Park in Sandy, Oregon —

We’re sorry to report that the 2020 Rendezvous 

HAS BEEN CANCELLED due to coronavirus.

Mick and Pete composed an email message that went out to the participant list on March 16.  If participants did not receive the email, please contact Mick directly.  (Spam filters and individual email account settings can sometimes hide our missives!)

Refunds have all been mailed, as of this morning, Saturday, March 21.  (Registrants — please let me know if you haven’t received yours in a week or so.)

****************************************************

****   CANCELLED  ****

Registration for workshops and dorms is mostly filled!  We have started waiting lists for some workshop levels,  and have just a few dorm beds available.  For folks who have the dates open on their calendar, email Mick to find which workshop levels have openings..

After negotiations (in an undisclosed location) with our staff of Local Heroes, we are happy to announce that Marina Albero, Simon Chrisman, Carolyn Cruso, Rick Fogel and Carl Thor have all agreed to come and share their talents with us through workshops and performances.  Not to be missed, Maestro Hossein Salehi will present a concert of traditional santoor music. Mick Doherty (your humble scribe, at this moment), after having a lot of fun tutoring at the Nonesuch Dulcimer Club’s gathering in England in October, is contemplating teaching a workshop this year, after sitting out instructing during the 2019 ‘Vous.

*******  CANCELLED  ******  On-site check-in will start at noon on Thursday, May 14. The Rendezvous will wrap up at noon on Sunday, May 17.
