Summer String Camp Options

We encourage all our young musicians to go to a summer string/orchestra camp to stay involved with music, keep their skills up over the summer, as well as to have the opportunity to enjoy music in an focused, musical environment, and make new friends. We find that students who attend summer camps, bring their enjoyment back to our curricular program. Here are a few of our favorite summer camps...
