Tradition & Innovation Basketry Today
October 6-10, 1999
Sponsored by HGA
At the Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts
Gatlinburg, Tennessee

Four VBG members attended this National Basketry Conference.

But baskets weren't the only fun thing to do at this conference. Saturday night was Picnic in the Park with a bluegrass band and dancing.

And an impromptu whistling contest.

 
Here's Jill winning a Top Banana award for whistling Yankee Doodle thru her hands.
  Yay Jill!
