Hello! My name is Brita Moore, and I am a cello intern. Wednesday at BYSO Summer Camp was extremely hot, just as the first two days were, but everyone still managed to have a great time. Our theme today was Wacky Wednesday, which meant we had to wear clothes and accessories that were pretty much insane. I didn't exactly go all out personally, but some students really took advantage of the opportunity to wear silly things.
So far, no one has suffered terribly because of the heat. The staff members are doing their best to keep everyone happy and motivated. We have encouraged the students to drink plenty of fluids (especially water!) and take it easy if they get tired. We also brought Otter Pops for snack time today - always a good treat in the heat. :) During lunch time, a group of us played the game In a Pickle, which we discovered yesterday morning and love to play. Tomorrow we are having a waterfight! This will be a welcome relief from the heat and stress.
Musically, we are quite impressed with the students' abilities. I was assigned to the viola sectionals (there were too many cello interns for one section), and they sound great. It is probably the strongest section in the orchestra in terms of sound. The orchestra as a whole is doing extremely well. Hopefully the sound will continue to improve, and on Friday these students' parents' jaws will drop.
That's all for now! Stay cool, and practice hard.
