Dayna is thrilled to offer Folk Army Day Camps to teach kids all aspects of a fun folkie lifestyle, focused on music, community, kindness and sharing.

Lauren picked up a guitar at the age of 11 and hasn’t put it down since. Lauren has participated in the Stratford Star Contest for both 2018 and 2019, as well as playing at the Stratford Art Gallery in 2020. She was also chosen to perform at the Kiwanis’ Stars of the Festival for the past two years. Last year, she performed on the Stratford Festival Stage, as part of the Folk Army at the PAL Concert.
