We've picked the Musicals for camp!

YAY!  Music from Around the World!

The Lion King - Africa
Aladdin - Arabia
Mary Poppins - London
The Sound of Music - Austria (check this out: "Sound Of Music Set Coffee Mug")

....now to get to learning that music!  Some of those songs are kinda difficult!

Trying Crafts...

Here's a set of pictures for one of the crafts we have decided to do for camp while we prepped and tried it out!!!!
the stencil-cutter-extraordinaire!
 
they aren't on music paper, but we didn't want to waste any...
And they look nifty framed!

in a floating frame!!




We got the idea from here and edited it a bit for camp - music scrap-booking paper, tempra paint, sponge brushes...but they will make nice gifts for our music-y peeps :)

We are still looking for volunteers & campers!  If you'd like more information about camp, see this post!

Camp Again?...YES!

This year we are not able to run a full-day camp like last year, so we had originally decided to skip this year.  

However, SO many kids and parents were asking if it was happening again that we've settled for the half days! (We've been volunteering at VBS at our church - where most of our campers came from - and they asked us when they saw us.  Not to mention all of the emails we've been receiving from curious parents!)


The theme we've chosen is Music From Around the World--and we have a few ideas!  One is to put together a scenes from different musicals and movies that represent different parts of the world.  Some possibilities include: My Fair Lady, The King & I, Mary Poppins, The Lion King, Aladdin, musicals based on mythological & Biblical stories, and Mulan.

Hopefully we can get this together as well as last year with such a short time to plan - 7 weeks!! eek! - volunteers are always one of the most difficult things to get and a lot of them from last year are off at college now!

As we get more info up, it will be posted to our Facebook page and the Bethel Lutheran site (specific menu to follow).  If you have any questions, you can either leave them on our Facebook page or email us at bethelmusiccamp@gmail.com.  EDIT: visit our Bethel Lutheran Church CYF site!

We're super excited! :)
