Campbell to offer 5th annual Children’s Choir Camp

     Campbell University’s Children’s Choir Camp is a five-day excursion into music for children, grades 3-6. Sponsored by the Cape Fear Friends of the Fine Arts and the Campbell University Music Department, the camp is held June 6-10, from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. at the Rogers Fine Arts Center on the Campbell campus.
     Participants will receive instruction in vocal and choral technique, music theory, Orff instruments and creative movement from seasoned members of the Campbell Music Department and the Harnett County Schools. An evening concert featuring the 2005 camp choir will also highlight the week.
     “The Children’s Choir Camp is an excellent way to discover and nurture a child’s musical gifts,” said Dr. Phillip Morrow, associate professor of music and camp director.  “The children will also enjoy large and small group activity each day plus swimming and other recreational activities.”
      Children who participate are required to be involved in their school music program and have a teacher recommendation. Campers recommended by their music teachers automatically qualify for a $60 scholarship from the Cape Fear Friends of the Fine Arts organization. The remaining cost is $120 for a total cost of $180 per camper.
