Participants will be assigned to either group A (beginner) or B (intermediate/advanced).  We will consider registration information carefully to provide each drummer with the best experience, so we appreciate your taking time to fill out the registration form with this in mind. The faculty looks forward to learning about you and your musical life before the retreat begins.

Additional activities will be offered, including faculty and student performances, swimming, a day trip to the volcano, a visit to Hilo and the farm markets, beautiful prepared farm lunches, an evening bonfire with star gazing and snacks, and other Hawaiian experiences.
