What to Expect
The program of music and fun is carefully balanced to provide an exciting experience. The educators are especially skilled at elementary level teaching.We typically have three string experts and two wind experts conducting the large groups. in addition, specialists work with individual sections. All non-music time is overseen by college age counselors in a ratio of 1 to 8. Counselors watch especially for "lonely"campers and assist in creating friendships.
