This weekend the Old Time Fiddlers Association of California is holding their annual Oroville event. Ages 4 to 90 are competing. Lots of good food and even though it's supposed to rain it should be a great event, all inside at the municipal auditorium, right downtown.

Here's a link to the associate website with their upcoming yearly schedule and information.

Word of caution .............. the achievement of some young students might suggest that you sell everything you own of a musical nature. 

I have wrestled with that question many times.
