...This camp has helped me improved throughout the many years I have attended. I learn more at this camp in a week than I do in a whole year at school. The teachers are all inspiring, patient, and make learning fun. If it wasn't for this camp I would not be where I am today. I hope to work here one day. My performance skills have improved as well as my confidence. It is great to come back to this camp every year and be able to show my teachers how much I have improved throughout the school year. I base my entire summer around this camp.

...I've been coming to camp for three years. This camp is very special to me. I learn more about music theory & techniques to improve my playing. Camp also ensures that I'm still practicing everyday so when I come back to school I've practiced & gotten better.

...Over the course of these last 3 weeks, I've grown as a musician as well as a person. Meeting talented musicians has inspired me to work harder and perfect my technique, while picking up new instruments. I learned chord structure and specifically improved in understanding how music is mapped out or formed. Brevard Sullivan was a great role model for how to get into the actual business of music and how working hard really pays off. Jackson Bunn inspired me.

...I love this camp! I am definitely coming back next year, and possibly doing counseling.

...I have been coming to the camp for 4 years and it is still awesome.

I wanted you to know how much I appreciate everything you did for (my daughter)... this year... She had decided not to take band in High School. I was very upset, but didn't let her know that...too much. Your camp really turned her around. She came to me about 2 weeks before camp was out and said "Dad, I think I made a big mistake. I love music and really want to be back in band this year". I got her back in the band because of your camp. Thank you so much for that!!!

She has requested to work for you next year as a counselor if you will have her. She told me that she wants to give back to the camp in any way she can next year. She really loves it there and wishes school was like that too.

I wanted to thank you for the wonderful music program you offer. My son ... had a wonderful time. He learned a lot and is eager to go again next year.

This has been a great experience, not only for him, but for us parents too. To see him on stage playing music and enjoying himself has been very rewarding.

I am sorry I didn't get to thank you personally, I didn't see you after the show.

We'll see you again next year!

...Just came home ! She was extremely happy of her stay in Miami. Thank you very much, your school is amazing.

Our deepest appreciation and thanks to the camp and all involved, which took such excellent care of our daughter, it was a rewarding experience for her.

Just wanted to tell you:

G... had a fantastic time at the camp and the final concert was great, so much talent, unbelievable what was accomplished in only 2 weeks. He wishes he had signed up for Session B, but this being the first time, we didn't know. It was great, and we will let everyone know.

. G... is very excited for the show!!! We are thrilled that Chuck (Bergeron) enjoys teaching C... Of course UM is definitely on the top of college choices!!

What an amazing show on Friday... Of course I enjoyed watching B... perform but the other performances were outstanding. I was impressed with the talent this year. The teachers all seemed so proud of their students and everything was so well put together.

You both have done an amazing job. Everything looked so organized and flawless. B... loved the experience this year and is looking forward to volunteering for Session B.
