    Hello friends,

    Happy New Year!! Now is the time to start making your travel plans for the year…airfare is really inexpensive right now. Check out http://www.sidestep.com for lots of great airfare deals.

    Camp Jitterbug is back on Memorial Day weekend this year and we have incredible plans for yet another unforgettable event. Registration is officially open so register early to save your spot. As always, we feature the top instructors, performers and musicians with spacious, beautiful venues in the heart of Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood.

    This year we are especially excited to feature the Jump Session Show in Seattle’s top performance space, the beautiful Benaroya Hall in downtown Seattle. This will be an event not to be missed. Campers can purchase tickets during registration for themselves (at a discount) and their friends. General public can
    purchase tickets directly through Benaroya Hall at http://www.benaroyahall.org.

    We have some fabulous instructors and bands booked, although not everyone is finalized quite yet, so keep checking back to see our latest additions.

    Save the date and register early…we sell out EVERY year!

    Camp Jitterbug 2nd price break and more updates

    Hello everyone,
    Here is a friendly reminder that our second price break is coming up May 3rd. If you haven't registered yet, now is a great time
    to do it! Remember, if you haven't paid yet, you AREN'T officially registered! Payment guarantees your registration and spot in
    the camp. Also, we allow a short grace period to send payment, but if you miss the price break within one week after
    registering, we can't honor that price. Several track are nearly sold out, so don't wait! We sell out every year.

    To register, visit www.campjitterbug.com

    Don't forget to purchase your Jump Session Show tickets when you register!! You get the discount only at the time of
    registration. This is truly the highlight of the weekend and this year in particular will be so special since we are at Benaroya Hall!
    It will be a night to dress up and bring your family and friends to see the best of the best on one of Seattle's best stages! The
    line-up in the show is absolutely incredible this year. We are so excited...please help spread the word to your non-dancing
    friends! We are anxious to have as many general public folks in our audience to educate the community on Lindy Hop and Jazz
    dance. If any of you would like to help spread the word by putting out posters and/or flyers, just email Tonya at
    tonya@campjitterbug.com.
