The N.Y.M.P. would like you to hear a great piece of music performed by the
week two gold band Tempered Steel a very advanced symphonic band piece written by Dr. Charles Young and performed by the 2007 week two gold band in 4 days with Dr. Young conducting. What makes this special is the student's drive and dedication to perform a piece of music that most high school bands would not have tried to perform in the normal time frame they have to prepare for a concert. As far as we have been able to determine no college band has attempted this piece in a four day period since its debut about ten years ago. We want to thank the students who insisted they could play Tempered Steel in the time frame, the instructors who guided the students through their week, and to Dr. Young for his patience working with our program, the staff, and taking time out of his very busy life to inspire 55 young musicians.

WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE
A.H. ZEPPA FAMILY FOUNDATION
FOR THEIR GENEROUS DONATION
OF $15,000 TO THE 2008 PROGRAM

Bob
Rogalla from LAKE STATES ENVIRONMENTAL and a long time supporter and parent
of N.Y.M.P. students wanted to know if he could be the first donor this
year? He almost made it. Bob you were number three this year!
Please join Bob and the other businesses and foundations who support us each
year. We are happy to get a donation in any amount. Every donation
gets us closer to meeting our $30,000 goal again this year.
NEW PRICING FOR 2008
As you, all know the cost of the program keeps going up. The N.Y.M.P. sent an email to parents and students in August to get feedback about an early tuition increase. This is the first early tuition increase in three years. The early tuition has been increased to $110 per week. Early registration will end by May 15th with no extension. The University Housing Department has requested the number of students who will be on campus for the first two weeks of by June 10. This is to help UWS Housing know how many beds to hold open for the N.Y.M.P. There will be a limited amount of extra housing per week for students registering after JUNE 10, 2008.
The food service cost for 2008 is as follows
breakfast $5.39 per morning or $26.95 per week
lunch $7.04 per day or $35.20 per week
supper $7.86 per day or $23.58 per week
total cost per week is $85.43 We had a miss print on the brochures sent out and apologize for any problem this may have caused.
The Northland Youth Music Program provides Sunday supper to on campus students, Wednesday night cook out, and Thursday talent show supper.
Please get your registrations in early!!
