PLEASE NOTE - LVW Camps #2 and 3 have changed location
Due to ongoing construction at FVL and the need for safe and available space, our second and third week camps will be held at St. Peter Lutheran Church and School, N2740 N French Rd, Appleton, WI 54913. We thank them for hosting LVW these two weeks!
Directions to St. Peter from FVL - go east on JJ/Edgewood Drive about 2 miles to French Road. Turn north on French Road and go about a mile and a half to St. Peter. If using a GPS, you may need to use Freedom instead of Appleton.

May 6 Rehearsal Postponed
Due to several factors, many unavoidable and out of our control, we will need to postpone the scheduled rehearsal for May 6.
The staff is looking at possible solutions to regain these hours of lost rehearsal time, likely during the summer. You will be notified with any updates. We do know that we cannot schedule another Saturday or Sunday rehearsal during the school year, as those dates are already filled with school concerts, proms, and other activities.
Thanks for you understanding with this matter. Keep an eye open for additional information prior to the beginning of Camp #1 in June.
