The winning logo for 2016 came from Eleanor Wyndham in Year four at Scone Public School.
She will receive prizes including entry to the Camp and tickets to the 2016 Youth Music Concert.
Founder and Youth Music Camp coordinator Gillian Miles congratulated Eleanor on her creative design.
During the popular annual event, sponsored by Kia-Ora Estates Pty Ltd, The Paradice Family, Newgate, KAWAI and Upper Hunter Shire Council, hundreds of young performers will spend three days working and rehearsing with some amazing tutors and conductors, in preparation for a finale concert on the Friday night.
The camp is offered to students from Year three through to Year 12 from all schools across the Upper Hunter Shire.
It is an excellent opportunity for budding musicians, as well as those who wish to try something new in the creative arts area.
There are even places available for students who have no previous background in voice, dance or instrumental tuition.
The music camp encourages young talent and motivates them to develop music in their lives by providing awards and scholarships.
A wide variety of enrolment options are available with classes on concert band, strings, choir, piano and the Amazing Voice Competition.
Other electives include dance, ukulele and marimbas.
Enrolments are now open and forms are available at all local schools and council offices.
It is recommended to enrol as soon as possible to be assured of getting your first preference of electives.
For more information about enrolment, contact Amanda Catzikiris, Community Services, on 6540 1153.
