FINALIST in 2015 Song Contest!

February 6, 2016 By Steve Eulberg

I received the following email this morning:
“Dear Steve,
  Congratulations The MY HERO Project  and Guitars in the Classroom have selected your song “I Am A Pond” to be a finalist in our 2015 Hero Song Contest. 
Voting ballots are going out to teachers and music professionals and winners will be announced on March 1, 2016
Thank You,
Stuart Pearlman
MY HERO Audio Manager”
Of course I am tickled by this!  (I believe it was entered into the ECO Song Contest).  
Both of these organizations are pretty amazing groups of people with life-changing and affirming goals.

So there you go.  Inspired by the curriculum of the naturalist director of a youth camp, I wrote this theme song, which has been endorsed by a macrobiologist at Colorado State University as “true and accurate in every part.”  It has been used in a middle school science curriculum and sung at church camps and youth events.
It was recorded in 2001 and now, 15 years later, a Finalist for an award that didn’t exist when the song was conceived and born.
Ain’t life grand?
Watch a live performance of the song below:

This tune was recorded on my 2001 CD, Soaring
