Have fun singing at this exciting day camp! Campers are assigned to choirs by age and rehearse twice each day. Classes in singing, drumming, movement, reading music, and playing the piano are part of the daily schedule. Campers enjoy special activities after lunch. The camp ends on Thursday with a public performance for family and friends in the Recital Hall beginning at 3 p.m.
More details and camper rules will be sent to all registered campers a week or so before camp begins. Advanced registration is required; fill out the registration form to reserve your space.
This camp is great preparation for the CSA Children's Choir, scheduled to debut in fall 2008!
