Adult volunteers are also needed.  Adults who volunteer for a leader position or 5-days will receive one free registration for a camper/counselor. So register at the link below by June 30th since space is limited and we need to order all the fun craft and decoration supplies ahead of time.  See you there!

Ridgefield Playhouse

The Marshall Tucker Band came together as a young, hungry, and quite driven six-piece outfit in Spartanburg, South Carolina in 1972, having duly baptized themselves with the name of a blind piano tuner after they found it inscribed on a key to their original rehearsal space — and they’ve been in tune with tearing it up on live stages both big and small all across the globe ever since. Plus, the band’s mighty music catalog, consisting of more than 20 studio albums and a score of live releases, has racked up multi-platinum album sales many times over. A typically rich MTB setlist is bubbling overwith a healthy dose of hits like the heartfelt singalong “Heard It in a Love Song,” the insistent pleading of “Can’t You See” (the signature tune of MTB’s late co-founding lead guitarist and then-principal songwriter Toy Caldwell), the testifying “Fire on the Mountain,” the wanderlust gallop of “Long Hard Ride,” and the explosive testimony of “Ramblin,’” to name but a few.Part of the Pepsi Rock Series Handcrafted by American Metal &amp; the Mountain Dew Country &amp; Bluegrass Series
