SOLID ROCK 2015

Each summer Cincinnati Christian University invites high school students to participate in a two-week event called SOLID ROCK. Students meet on the campus of CCU for a week of rehearsal to create and learn a program of ministry through music and the arts. During the second week, the group travels by charter bus to present their program at a different church every night.

My son and a few former students from WCC have participated in SOLID ROCK in the past and had a great experience. We have one student this year who is preparing to send her application in to be a part of this summer’s program.

If you are a high school student (or know a high school student) who enjoys the arts (singing, playing a musical instrument or the technical side of things), check out SOLID ROCK. It’s a great experience and also creates relationships that last beyond the two weeks together.

Information on the program and how to apply are on the Cincinnati Christian University website. Dates for 2015 are July 5-10 (on campus) and July 11-17 (on tour). The application packet is due March 16th. Go check it out.

Visit to IU

Last weekend I accompanied my daughter on an unofficial visit to IU.  She has looked at a few other schools, but this was special as I grew up as an Indiana fan.  I’ve been to two games at Assembly Hall, but have never looked around at the athletic facilities or the campus.  It was great to see Cook Hall, where the men’s and women’s basketball offices and practice courts are. We also looked around Assembly Hall and the football stadium and weight room.

The facilities are impressive.  Here are a few pictures.
