Now accepting registrations for Kilt Kamp 2013

Where: Clinton, NY (about an hour east of Syracuse)

When: July 28 – August 1, 2013

What: Kilt Kamp is the place for you to learn how to make a kilt for the first time, extend your kiltmaking to a new kind of kilt, or just have a great time making your umpteenth kilt in the company of kiltmaking friends. Whether you want to make a hand-sewn traditional kilt (knife pleated, box pleated, or Kingussie) or a machine-sewn contemporary kilt (maybe even with hidden pockets!), Kilt Kamp is the place to do it and have fun at the same time.

You will sign up for either the Traditional Kilt course or the Contemporary Kilt course, but you can move freely between the two. Space is limited – 8 registrants in the trad course and 8 in the contemporary course. Registration is first come, first served, although XMarkers will have first priority for registrations received before March 1.

Instructors: Barbara Tewksbury (author of The Art of Kiltmaking) and Steve Ashton (owner of Freedom Kilts)

Dates: Class starts at 8 am on Sunday, July 28th and will be over in the evening on Thursday, August 1. If you come a day early, you can join us for the Great American Irish Festival on Saturday, July 27. Great musical entertainment plus a pipe band competition.

Cost: $350, plus meals, lodging, and supplies (you provide fabric). Dorm housing is available in single rooms on campus at $45/night, or you can make your own housing arrangements.

Registration: An email to btewksbu@hamilton.edu plus a deposit of $200 will secure you a place, with the balance due no later than July 1. Once you are registered, you will receive additional info on logistics and supplies.
