Dear Friends of Caz, As the year draws to a close and the melodies of summer still linger in our hearts, we are filled with gratitude for your incredible support of Cazadero Music Camp. Your generosity allows young musicians like Emily, pictured above with her friend at camp, to experience the magic of Cazadero. She expressed her gratitude in her own words: “Not only did I learn so much about the clarinet, but I got to reconnect and make new friends. This year I truly got the chance to excel, play in ensembles with amazing directors, and meet many remarkable musicians. Thank you so much!” Another scholarship recipient, Jasmin, spoke to the impact Caz has had in her life: “I had so much fun at Cazadero!! I don’t know what my life would be like without music, -and I hope I never will either- and Caz has really kept me playing during summers and has made me a better musician and person. I have long-lasting friendships with people I met two years ago!! Please donate at least a little bit of money to help other kids get to experience the same fun I have!” These are just two examples of the profound impact your contributions have on our campers. Your gifts provide scholarships, fund exceptional music instruction, and maintain our beautiful facility nestled among the redwoods. As we look ahead to the coming year, we are excited to continue fostering a love of music in young people and providing them with an unforgettable camp experience, but we are faced with increasing expenses and many site projects. With your help, we can ensure that the transformative power of Caz continues and reaches even more aspiring musicians. Please consider making a year-end donation to Cazadero Music Camp, a 501(c)3 nonprofit. We will send a prompt receipt to acknowledge your tax-deductible gift. You can donate online (Network for Good or PayPal works for us) or by mailing a check to our admin team at PO Box 7908, Berkeley, CA 94707. Thank you for being a part of the Cazadero family.
