                  The Kenosee Lake Kitchen Party has become a must attend event in southeast Saskatchewan, which has been growing and evolving over the past 11 years. Every year the Kenosee Lake Boys and Girls camp hosts the fiddling sensations, which has grown to include a wide variety of instruments ranging from voice to banjo lessons there’s something for everyone.

                  The camp operates for two weeks in August and many attendees enjoy the full two weeks, while others attend for just the first or second week. Although attendees may be the same, the camp looks at bringing in different instructors which allows them to not only employ over 30 Canadian musicians at the camp, but provide a variety of examples of inspiration to those attending the camp as well.

                  The camp itself pulls in approximately 120 attendees each week and between the instructor showcases and student showcases there are thousands of people who enjoy music at the lake.

                  Participants not only receive instruction during class-like sessions, but are able to participate in collaborations, private lessons, and jamming sessions. On top of the very fun musical side of things, there is access to the lake where many camp participants can be found out on the water when they’re not taking in the spectacular instruction.

                  Although instructors are some of the top Canadian musicians, participants in the camp come from far and wide including from across Canada and into the United States.

                  The culture of the Kenosee Lake Kitchen Party is one that has been cultivated since the camp’s inception. For those who enjoy fiddling, music, and fun, the camp has become an entertaining, but educational way to enjoy the summer. The camp looks to centre the family and community around music. The extended musical family found at Kenosee Lake Kitchen Party is as well quite unique

                  Beginners to veterans are welcome to attend the sessions which focus on fiddle, banjo, mandolin, voice, guitar, cello (one week only), and piano.
