Heights Summer Music Camp offers expert instruction and fun!
Reaching Heights is now accepting applications to the Heights Summer Music Camp to be held June 16-21 at Wiley Middle School. Students residing in the Cleveland Heights-University Heights school district who are currently enrolled in grades 5-8 in their school’s instrumental music program are invited to participate in this intensive week of music making. The fee is $130 for the week and scholarships are available. More information and applications are available at www.reachingheights.org or call camp coordinator, Betsy Neylon at 440-725-6845. Application deadline is May 15. Space is limited.
This is the fourth year that Reaching Heights, a citizen support organization for the Heights schools, has partnered with the school district to offer this engaging enrichment opportunity. Heights High Instrumental Music Director Scott Astey is the music director. District music teachers and local professionals, Heights High alumni and current students work with campers in orchestra and sectional rehearsals, chamber groups, music theory, recreation time, and in workshops focused on jazz, guitar and choral music. Camp hours are 9:00AM to 3:30 PM daily.
Students perform a finale concert at the end of the week. They display the wonderful growth and musicianship that they’ve honed during a week of concentrated instruction and practice and exploration.
