Music Camp - Montreat Worship and Music Conference
For the past 32 years,
children, youth and adults from First Presbyterian
Church have attended the Presbyterian Association
of Musicians’ annual worship and music conference in
Montreat, North Carolina. Our Montreators will join renowned
conductors and teachers exploring the riches of
God’s love expressed in worship and music for this year’s
conference on “Sacraments and Seasons.”
Each conferee pays approximately $350 for the conference
registration and food. In addition, each conferee
is responsible for their "fair share" of $150 for housing
and transportation. The children earn their fair share by
participating in fundraising events held throughout the
year. Our church budget allocates $20,000 towards the
cost of housing and transportation. This year our goal
for fundraising for Montreat housing and transportation
expenses is also $20,000.
Several Montreat fundraising opportunities are held during the months of October and November:
Delicious homemade pies (Sweetie Pies) will be made during the October and November for members and friends of the congregation. Please see the order form in the Bugle and the pew racks. A sign up form for those wishing to assist making pies will be posted by the choir room door.
Homecoming Parade Parking - Plan to park in the church parking lot
Downtown Art Festival parking in the Church Parking Lot.
Thank you for your continued support. For more information

Worship and Music Conference Committee:
