Elementary Music Day Camp

Monday, June 11 - Friday June 15, 2012 from 8:00am-Noon

The first year of Elementary Music Day Camp was a huge success, so we are once again bringing all of the experience and excitement of our camps to beginning musicians. The Elementary Music Day Camp is designed to help children develop a life-long love of music. Campers will be exposed to singing, playing instruments, moving to music, creating music, and the basics of reading and writing music. Campers will also have the opportunity to experience music from around the world. Camp will conclude with an exciting performance in Ruby Diamond Concert Hall where campers will demonstrate what they’ve learned.

Camp will take place daily from 8:00am-Noon.
