3x3 camp in Kazdanga
The second 3x3 camp in Latvia this summer will take place in Kazdanga, in southwestern Latvia, from July 19-26. The 3x3 camp is a week-long cultural and social experience for whole families, as well as singles of all ages. Children spend the days at fun and educational activities, while adults attend seminars and workshops about various Latvian topics, such as folklore, politics, literature, silversmithing, woodworking and weaving. The 3x3 camps in Latvia often offer more than seminars for adults. Seminars, workshops and children’s activities are led by experts in their respective fields from Latvia and abroad. All generations come together during the evenings for more activities and, of course, singing and dancing. The camps draw many local participants and space is limited, so organizers recommend early registration. For more information and to register contact the 3x3 liaison outside of Latvia, Līga Ruperte, at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address). For further information, visit www.3x3.lv.

Despite 25 years of making music, Bumerangs has just two albums
Bumerangs, from the northern Latvian city of Valka, has long been a Latvian schlager music institution. Celebrating its 25th anniversary in December 2011, the band has been one of the hardest working—playing, in some years, hundreds of concerts, and entertaining audiences not just in Latvia, but elsewhere in the world.
