FSGW 2021 Getaway Online Schedule of Events for Nature Center

On each day of the Getaway there are several parallel sessions. They are implemented as Zoom breakout rooms. If you have registered to attend the Getaway, you will receive a link to join the Getaway Zoom session. Once you have joined, you can go to any of the currently running sessions by going to the appropriate breakout room.
All times are listed in Eastern Daylight Time (EDT), the time zone for Washington, DC and the Eastern United States. If you live in another time zone, you can recalculate times here.
If you wish to actively participate in the Vocal Clinic or Slide Guitar Basics sessions you will need to sign up beforehand since the number of participants is limited. You can do that by clicking the sign up link in the schedule entry for those sessions. If you'd just like to watch, you are welcome to join as with any of the other Zoom sessions. Similarly, if you want to sing in the Saturday or Sunday evening concerts, you need to sign up beforehand by clicking on the link in the schedule.
If you wish to find out more about any of the session leaders there is a list of web pages, contact information, and product purchase information here.
Here are links to other forms of the schedule. The individual room schedules may be useful to those using a small screen device. The version with no tables is a text only version suitable for those who have trouble reading tables.
