Testimonials:
Musical Theater Camp:
"We just finished our last day of camp. I'm hoping you can pass this message along to the teacher, Ms. Patricia.
We had done theater camp twice with CMT, but those experiences pale in comparison to the week [our daughter] just had. [She] LOVED her experience at theater camp with The Music Place, and we can't thank Ms. Patricia enough for her patience, kindness and enthusiasm. [She] felt so welcome and so loved, not to mention she learned so much in regards to everything involved in musical theater. She loved the art projects and also gained so much confidence. Ms. Patricia was able to create an environment where the kids truly bonded with one another.
As we drove home after the performance today, [she] was in tears because she is going to miss Ms. Patricia so much. My daughter has been to plenty of camps, but she has never cried about having to say goodbye to a teacher. Please let Ms. Patricia know that she made a profound impact on [her], and that [she] holds a special place in her heart for her.
If Ms. Patricia teaches any other classes, we would love to know which ones so that we can see if we can sign up for something that she teaches.
Thanks to the Music Place for this wonderful experience."
Recording Artist Camp
"[Our son] attended the Band/Recording camp last week and he had an absolute blast! He said it was his favourite camp that he has ever been to and that he wished it were a regular class he could attend. The opportunity to help write the songs & lyrics was so fantastic and really fostered creativity and kept him totally engaged. We really appreciate the hard work that Jason & Charles put in arranging this camp and thinking about creative ways to keep the kids engaged."
Recording Artist Camp
"From my son's perspective, it was an awesome camp. He was excited every day to go and upon return told us all about his day and what they learned. He made new friends, enjoyed playing a new card game (and now we have to order it for home) and expanded his music skills and knowledge.
He said at one point 'These are my people' "
"From a parent perspective, I was impressed how well Jason and Charles were organized, prepared with activities to challenge the campers and foster collaboration, while also allowing time for gaming and fun like a more traditional summer day camp. I also appreciate that, beyond music and recording knowledge, they have patience and experience working with kids. All of this for the first time they have organized and run a camp is notable." ~Eli N.
