Sharing the Experience
Thank you letter from one of our outreach partners, the California Conservation Corps
From CAMA’s 100th Season
As guests through CAMA’s free ticket outreach program, California Conservation Corps members, along with District Director Mike Anderson, attended a CAMA orchestral performance at The Granada Theatre. For most of the Corps members, this was their first experience of live classical music.
It’s hard to know what internal growth actually takes place when exposed to something so new. Here are some good indicators.
- Everyone was super excited and just having a ball. They left in such a good mood and truly seemed to have enjoyed themselves.
- One Corps member said that he will not listen to his music the same again.
- We had a talk about how different music is ideal with coping with different emotions. Having a larger repertoire will allow variety, just like life needs variety.
- Several loved having the brochure to remember the experience and share with their families.
Thank you again!
