Booher Family Music Camp Part 2

What did we do while not in class or standing in line for our scrumptious meals?  There were games for the active and quiet spaces for those wishing to relax.  Something for everyone!

Liddy helped lead a young ladies Bible study.
We're so pleased that both Mom and Dad worked hard at the bass guitar all week long!  Here Noah helps Mom practice.

The swimming hole...with a swing!


Kathrina helping Dad learn his part for Band Scramble.

Dad also helped Ben with the sound system.  They spent several hours Friday afternoon troubleshooting the system, finally discovering a couple bad cords!

Friday night saw everyone perform in The Big Concert.  Noah's guitar class performed and Noah turned up in a beard that was strikingly muddy in color!

Mom performed with the ladies' choir.

The kitchen crew performed a hilarious song based on "Hey Good Lookin', What You Got Cookin" but with the words changed around to match Booher Camp.

The piano class performed "Sweet Georgia Brown".  And yes, that is a bass in the background.  We were fortunate enough to have some guest musicians play with us, plus Janna on the harp!

In just two days, Chris led our piano class through the basics of putting lyrics to music.  Everyone was able to contribute something and Chris was so pleased with the song we ended up with, he had us record it Friday morning and perform it Friday night!  The lyrics are taken from Romans 10.   Ben on the bass, Kathrina on the violin, and Jamie and Rachel on cello, joined the vocalists and pianists.

Dad, as soundman, worked with Ben and Eric for the entire concert, which because of all the different bands getting on and off stage, was a momentous task!

Kathrina's Fiddle 5 class was the most advanced fiddle class and they went all out!

They performed a cute jazzy song, South.

Thank you, Booher family, for a wonderful and blessed week!  We hope to be back!

Hey,
Sam and Caleb Faber were in the keyboard class with Chris. Unfortunately, they did not leave him their address for the song they wrote in class. Do you have a digital copy available we could get online?
Thanks,
