"I absolutely had a blast!! Tom is a fantastic conductor/teacher/friend.  My section rehearsal instructor was just the best and the master classes were really wonderful as well.  Everyone was very friendly. I hope to attend again next year.  In fact, I'm truly looking forward to it." -- Susan M., 2008 Adult Band Camp Participant
