"I know my daughter told you how wonderful this camp was.  I wanted to further reiterate how fantastic this camp was.  Since it was the first year, i don’t think a lot of people knew about it.  They had a limit of 12 students and only had 8 there.  If there is a student interested in this field at all, I would highly encourage them to attend.  I sent [my daughter] as a way to confirm her interest in this field or if she she consider other avenues. 


"Every student left loving Professor Merchant.  He encouraged each student in their own way, recognizing each one’s strengths and contributions to the week.  It allowed the students to see what working in a professional studio is all about.  He also allowed them to record two songs from start to finish.  Each student was allowed to then mix the song individually as to they preferred.  It was all hands on learning.  All the students left, saying they were coming back again next year too! 


"Please pass this on to the others or even the county system as a whole.  This is a real world opportunity for students considering this field as a major in college.  


Thank you!"
