WoodFest
WoodFest is a music-based family event sponsored by Symphony in the Flint Hills and held at Camp Wood YMCA each fall where nationally known musicians teach players of all ages, instruments, and experience in dozens of workshops. Non-players are encouraged to pick up an instrument and try it themselves. Outside in the Flint Hills that surround camp, families can experience the natural beauty through nature walks, horseback riding and art classes. Highlights include a Saturday evening concert featuring award-winning musicians and the WoodFest Symphonia. Join us for a weekend full of music, nature and fun!
