Hi everyone, So I got a response back from Burlington Taiko. The price is kinda steep so I don't know if you want to still do this or not. Thanks, Heidi ----- Forwarded message from [log in to unmask] ----- Date: Fri, 9 Mar 2007 05:37:12 -0800 (PST) From: Alison Takenaka <[log in to unmask]> Reply-To: Alison Takenaka <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: UVM taiko workshop inquiry To: "Heidi Satomi. Shimada" <[log in to unmask]> Dear Heidi-- Thank you for your email, and apologies for this delayed response! I just returned to town yesterday. Stuart Paton will be out of the country during the month of April, but is available to lead a taiko workshop on Wed, 3/14 or 3/21. The cost for a workshop for a 90 minute workshop for 30-35 participants is $350 plus ~$50 for travel expenses-- $400 total. Please let me know if one of these dates works for you! If you need to reach me by phone, my home number is 288-9998. Sincerely, Alison Takenaka, Burlington Taiko "Heidi Satomi.

This year, the Japanese House is interested in sponsoring a similar event. If possible, we would like to know if Paton-sensei would be available for a taiko workshop in April. Ideally, we are interested in a night workshop (around 6 or 7pm), but we are relatively free with scheduling so we would like to schedule around Paton-sensei. We would also like to know the cost to hold such an event. Thank you for your time. If you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me.
