Please check back in January 2002 for more details on this exciting opportunity. Attention Junior Corps members, here is a terrific opportunity to learn more about fife and drum and to perform as a part of the 4th of July Celebration at Colonial Williamsburg. Through special arrangements, a limited number of students will be selected to participate in one of Firespark's most unique offerings to date. Instructors from the Colonial Williamsburg corps, arguably one of the world's finest, have designed a two-week program that will develop and challenge your abilities while providing a rare performance opportunity. During the first week, students will attend classes on the campus of Brenau University and study with instructors from the Colonial Williamsburg Fife and Drum Corps.
Space is limited so there's plenty of opportunity for individual attention.
Students will attend five 1 hour classes each day designed to develop their skills and prepare them to take their place in other established corps. In the evenings, students will attend performances with attendees of the other Firespark programs featuring professional entertainment. On the weekend, organized trips to attractions such as Six Flags over Georgia or Stone Mountain allows students the opportunity take advantage of local attractions. During the second week, students will accompany their instructors to Colonial Williamsburg to attend special events and classes highlighted by a special performance on the Fourth of July. Tuesday, July 3, students have instruction in Williamsburg with Tim Sutphin and Lance Pedigo, and possibly other corps members.
