Camp Jitterbug 2006

Wow. I just got back Camp Jitterbug, the best lindy hop event I’ve ever attended, which was held in Seattle, Washington. Amazing music, amazing dancers, great workshops, great hosts, great company (I stayed in a small one bedroom apartment with 17 other people), great city, awesome competitions, amazing music, amazing dancers, and you get the point. I think the main thing for me was the music. I love fast, bouncy, “charleston” music and there was plenty to be had in Seattle. I am in love. The faster the music, the more energy I get.

Anna July 16, 2006 at 8:35 PM hey there, you dont know me, but I thought I would add to your reply list. I wanted to go to camp jitterbug but was too poor. BUt I am going to the Seattle Lindy Exchange. I hope to see you there!
Ryan July 16, 2006 at 9:05 PM I don’t think I’ll be at the Seattle Exchange. It’s very very tempting though! I really can’t decide.
