The staff at the Osceola Center for the Arts have kindly awared Ephraim a full scholarship ($200) to attend their Summer Orchestra String Camp.  Yes, my sister Rechel is the instructor for the the String Camp, but their decision was made independently of that (seeing how they don’t know she’s my sister).

We are so grateful that Ephraim will be able to attend this camp and hope that his skills with playing the violin will grow.

***UPDATE JULY 20, 2012***

We just got back from attending the String Orchestra Camp Concert at the Osceola Center for the Arts.  Ephraim did such a great job on his performance!  We are so proud of him.  He seems like he grew a lot and made new friends.  A BIG THANK YOU to my sister Rechel for keeping Ephraim for 2 weeks so he could attend the camp.
