A Magical Journey to Summer Music Camps
(Page 5 of 5)
May/June 1985
By Wayne Erbsen
OK, all aboard for the return trip! Whew, I don't know about you, but I'm getting tired of all this traveling—I'll be glad to get home. However, while we're driving back, I'd like to point out that, although I've tried my best, this probably hasn't been an all—inclusive tour. Chances are, there are a number of other summer music camps scheduled to be held this year that I just haven't heard about. (Surely the great heartland states will be hosting a few!) So keep an eye out for such events in your area. And by the way, if you do come across a camp or workshop that I haven't mentioned, drop me a letter. I'd like to hear about it!
