Whoa. We have never had this many students register for BERKS SUMMER STRINGS, especially this early with 3 weeks yet to go. Here is where the students are coming from.

Don’t put your strings away after the last day of school! Keep them out. We are gearing up for our 7th season of Berks Summer String Institute. Great music, teachers, friends and time together.

I have had a fellow educator and a couple students who asked me for a “printable flyer” for Berks Summer Strings.  Click  HERE for a Google Doc that I think will work. It is the same one I will hand out to my own students here at Governor Mifflin.

> Have them register and come when they can.
