Scholarship: Lighthouse Jazz understands that without new fans, the great Traditional American Jazz sound and all the forms it takes may someday cease to be. Music is an integral part of our culture and society, which can influence and educate future generations. Traditional Jazz has been called "the only true" American art form. Whether you agree with this or not, there is no denying the influence this music has had, and continues to have. To help ensure this music continues to play, Lighthouse Jazz supports a Scholarship fund for local high school musicians. Funded by donations and proceeds generated by fund raising activities, the Scholarship fund is used to send these young musicians to Jazz camps, where they can learn about and explore the wonderful music that we love so much. 2008 In the summer of 2008, Lighthouse Jazz awarded two Scholarships. Ms. Allison Barker and Mr. Daniel Mather were selected as the Lighthouse Jazz Scholarship winners. Allison and Daniel were both saxophone players. Allison traveled to the Sacramento California Jazz Camp, while Daniel attended the Mel Brown Jazz Camp.
