2008 Choir Camps

Boys Choir Camp:
August 11 - August 15, 9 am to 4 pm, at St. Peter's Episcopal Church

Girls Choir Camp:
August 11 - August 15, 9 am to 4 pm, at St. Peter's Episcopal Church

The choir season begins with week-long choir camps.
During these camps, the choristers:

• Refresh and learn rehearsal skills.
• Refine and learn sight-singing/solfege skills.
• Begin working on new repertoire.
• Re-establish friendships and make new ones.
• Enjoy team building activities and sports! In past years, these activities have included swimming, bowling, solving "The Amazing Maize Maze" and competing in a Polaroid scavenger hunt!
• Eat meals together, learning and practicing appropriate table etiquette. These skills are put to use in the future, as we travel.
• Improve music reading skills through handbell classes.
• Perform at a concluding service and concert on Friday at 4:30 p.m.

The camp experience is essential to every young singer's success. It sets the chorister up with reminders of his or her knowledge base and creates a healthy and supportive environment for them to challenge themselves in front of their peers who, after camp, have become their friends. And it's fun, too!
