Ah, I was just about to start a thread on this, because it's about time to apply/register for summer workshops on the classical side of things too. I just submitted my application to the CalCap Chamber Music Workshop last night.
Here's what's on my radar for classical players. This is definitely not an exhaustive list; I'm more aware of what's available on the West Coast because I live in California.

Chaparral Chamber Music Workshop - Prescott, AZ, May 31-June 2

I just heard about this fiddle camp (the violinist in my quartet has gone several times), and I don't see it on the list:
Fiddle Tunes - Port Townsend, WA, July 1-8
It looks like registration is still open!
For classical players, there's also another chamber music workshop that came onto my radar just recently. The application deadline passed a month ago, but I think I should probably post it so that we don't forget about it in future years.
Adult Chamber Music Intensive - St. Louis, MO, July 29 - Aug. 3
