Comment by Steve Good on October 19, 2008 at 2:33am - Hi, all -- I was at Kamp in '04, and it was a great experience. Hope to return one day, though it'll be a tad more difficult now that I've moved permanently from Canada to Italy.....)

Comment by jean Barby on August 21, 2008 at 12:33pm - I am saving money to come back may be next year. I was in the Kamp in 2005 and I really had a ball there, it is hard to go back to France, but I have great guitar pickers buddies, it helps makes the wait bareable! Hi Steve and Dana, big cheers, jean.
