On April 9th and 10th, 2010, Fretmentor held the first annual Jens and Uwe Kruger Banjo and Guitar Workshop. The event was very successful with 42 registered attendees. This weekend workshop featured a Friday night opening session with Jens and Uwe Kruger performing their songs and discussing their musical adventures with the crowd. On Saturday April 10th, separate all day sessions were held for both the banjo and guitar players. The end of the day featured a prize drawing in which two banjos and other prizes were raffled away.
The event was sponsored by First Quality Musical Supplies, Deering Banjos, Epiphany Lutheran Church, Banjo Newsletter, Intellitouch Tuners, Homespun Tapes, Acoustic Guitar Magazine, and Bluegrass Unlimited Magazine. My sincere gratitude goes out to these sponsors for assisting in making this a exciting event.
