The Williamsburg Music Club takes this opportunity to notify exceptionally talented young area musicians of a memorial scholarship, established at Interlochen, by the late Claire McElheny of Williamsburg to fulfill the wishes of his wife, Anne. Mrs. McElheny, a charter member of the Wednesday Morning Music Club, had received a music scholarship in her early years and it was something she had long appreciated.

The McElheny Memorial Endowment Fund, administered by Interlochen, provides these scholarships in perpetuity to support talented area music students who meet Interlochen's requirements for scholarship awards.

Candidates for the summer camp scholarship are selected from the City of Williamsburg, James City County and York County areas of Virginia. The three priorities for consideration are:

1) musical aptitude
2) academic proficiency
3) financial need.

Students should apply directly to Interlochen. Early completion of the application process is recommended for the best chance of enrollment. For full details, go to www.interlochen.org/camp
