What runs tight is the housing. We currently have plenty of beds for double occupancy. There are just a handful of private rooms.

Couples that register will room together.

If you requested to room with a friend or relative and they have not registered as of yet, they need to in the next few weeks. Can you check on them and give them a bump? We are holding their housing.

Since housing is on a first come basis, it is better to get those deposits in soon.

Steve Kaufman’s Acoustic Kamps offers acoustic music students of all levels an opportunity for real immersion and growth in an extremely friendly, supportive and uplifting environment where people can play music, sing, jam and share valuable musical knowledge.

Choose one instrument of study from a variety of specialized weekly classes. Bring other instruments if you have them for the jams.

Enjoy four daily instructor hosted jams, evening Open Mic, and Kamp Koncerts.
Then after the evening activities, the student jams begin.

You’ll come away with new repertoire and invaluable techniques, a reinvigorated sense of direction and purpose, and a greater confidence and joy in making music on your instrument!

This is the Bestest trip Donna and I have ever taken and we've taken it Five Times!! We typically have 14 folks on this amazing Jamming and Photo Safari so it's a small group. Not all the attendees play an instrument. You just have to have a love for nature, the animals and the great outdoors.
 
We ride the plains in several Land Cruisers with incredible guides that take us right where the animals can be found.
 
You can see our daily schedule HERE

This trip to Botswana is in Leopard country and sightings are expected to be daily. We will easily see the Big Five - Leopards, Lions, Elephants, Cape Buffalo and Rhino along with countless colorful birds, hyena, cheetah, wort hogs and much much, more.


If you've been thinking about going for years, this is your year to make it happen. We are not sure how many more of this trip we will be taking.

Visit my site for more info and register now. October will be here before you know it.   Read About the Trip HERE
 

Holler at us with questions or call Kevin or Tricia Dooley for info and to register.
