8/2: What’s “Idol” camp like?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
“American Idol” has always been big on using sponsors but the past year, they’ve piled on, with clothing, Edy’s Ice Cream and other ancillary items outside of Ford, AT&T and Coke. And there’s now even an “Idol” summer camp.
It’s in Northfield, Mass. for 10 days targeting 12 to 15 year old aspiring singers.
“So much funding for performing arts programs has been drying up over the last few years, so we are really just trying to fill that gap and encourage kids to extend themselves, take risks and pursue their dreams,” said Felicity Carr, a director at FremantleMedia, which co-produces “American Idol.”
Jon Peter Lewis from season three works at the camp.
