This evening he took a little stroll with me down memory lane as we watch the videos from the first year and remembered how it all began. He then pointed out that he&#8217;s currently wearing the green HPAC shirt from that first show! It was too big then and it&#8217;s a little small now, but he still loves it. It felt like a poetic way to wrap up his HPAC experience. I will be forever grateful to the music teachers at all three schools for guiding Lex through his musical discovery and setting him on what will hopefully be a life-long journey. &#x1f497;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So many years ago tiny little Lex joined the Hartford Performing Arts Camp and today he did his final HPAC performance.
