On May 17, at Lee's Summit City Hall, Metheny Foundation scholarships for 2008 were presented to eleven students. "The March 7th event was so successful that we were able give cash awards to every Lee's Summit music student who applied," said Foundation board member Mike Metheny. "We also decided to let the recipients pick which camp they would like to attend." This year those choices included the University of Missouri/Kansas City (UMKC), the Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp in Michigan, and summer sessions at Boston's Berklee College of Music.

Of those students, three were from LSW! Read the full press release and congratulate these students (and graduates) when you see them.
