Music CampJuly 25-29 Music with Liz Nolf
Children will have an opportunity to create a band, discover their voice and explore the magical world of music.  We will explore rhythm and harmony, and discover the joy of making music as a group.  Each child should bring an instrument to play, which they should be physically capable of playing but do not need to be proficient at; the instrument could also be their voice, as we will need lead and backup singers.  There will be a final performance on Friday, July 29th.
