2008 Heights Summer Music Camp

June 16-21, 2008 was a great week for music adventures at the Heights Summer Music Camp held at Wiley Middle School.  A crew of 39 teachers and student counselors and 85 campers dedicated their week to making music and new friends, exploring music theory, singing, playing guitar and jazz.  Each day campers participated in two orchestra rehearsals, sectional rehearsals, chamber groups, music theory classes, recreation and an elective: guitar, chorus and jazz.   The week ended with a finale concert.
