It's Not Just About the Music...

Okay, well BYSO Summer Camp is a lot about the music, of course, but have you been? It's also about water balloon wars, trying out new music, and making new friends. Seriously, can you think of another time your conductor is cool with practicing out on the grass?

Guest Blogger!

We always love to hear from guest bloggers, and this week our very own BYSO Board Treasurer, Scott Lampe, dropped by to share with us why he continues to support BYSO with his work on the board:

As a member of the BYSO board of directors for the past seven years and treasurer for the past two, it has been a pleasure to watch the organization see consistent robust growth and to see the valuable musical experience afforded hundreds of Eastside youth. Given the strong correlation of the skills and discipline required in music with success in other academic pursuits, it is gratifying to see the overwhelming support by so many Eastside families and to see their children grow in their musical talents based on their positive experiences with BYSO.

The board of directors is committed to the continued success of BYSO and encourage anyone to feel free to contact any of the board members with questions about the organization - we also are always interested in folks who may have an interest in serving with us!
