Frontier Fiddlers



Friday at noon the Frontier Fiddlers were playing at the Legislature.

A number of years ago, Cameron Baggins (bottom photo) realized that there was a need to teach fiddling to children in many communities in Manitoba. And so began his quest. In the years since he has developed and expanded a program which reaches out to communities around Manitoba, especially First Nation and Metis communities to provide for the teaching of fiddling.

Ryan D'Aost (top photo), from Norway House, is one of the students who has learned fiddling and done so well he has earned prizes for his fiddling.
