Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Of the 270 participants that will attend GRRR, 90% will improve their instrument proficiency, songwriting ability and performance ability. 85% of participants will feel an increased confidence in themselves and their creative ability. Every instrument class, band practice and music workshop has learning goals for the participants to help improve their skills. Teaching Artists will indicate at the end of each lesson what percentage of participants met the learning goals. Additionally, participant, parent/guardian and teaching artists surveys will be filled out at the end of camp. The surveys will ask the participants questions about self-confidence and musical ability. The parent/guardians and teachers surveys will ask questions about the changes they saw in the campers.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Our surveys found that 99% of campers indicated their music recording ability improved, and 94% stated their songwriting ability improved during camp. We also found that 85% of campers felt more confident after attending camp. One camper wrote: ?I learned compassion here. I learned that not only are others in need of love, but I am in need of it as well. I deserve to be loved.?
