About this camp

Want to play in a band on stage? Our Rock 101 music camp is designed for beginners 8-12 years old. No experience necessary! Students will explore their instruments through musical games and activities. Our nurturing environment makes this the perfect camp for budding musicians. Students will work on songs Monday through Friday and the camp will culminate in a concert at the end of the week for family and friends.

SCHEDULE

• Camp runs Monday through Friday 9:30am - 3:00pm each day
• Drop off is no earlier than 9:00am each day
• Pick up is no later than 3:30pm each day
• Each day will consist of rehearsals, practice time & fun music-based games/activities

FRIDAY PERFORMANCE

On Friday, campers will put on a show for family and friends and perform the songs they’ve been working on all week. The show will take place at the school at 2:30pm.  We will be providing more details about the show on the first day of camp.

RAMP TO CAMP Program

Ramp to Camp is an optional program designed to help new campers feel confident and prepared for camp.  It includes four, 30 minute one on one sessions with an instructor.    Students will:

• Learn the basics of your instrument or strengthen specific skills
• Get familiar with some of the camp songs
• Gain confidence before joining their band for the week.  

It’s the perfect warm-up for newer musicians or tune up for more experienced players — helping campers hit the ground running on day one!  These sessions are customized to the camper's needs.   Many campers will participate in this optional program a month prior to camp.

Pricing is $109 for 4 sessions.  Call us or email to set this up!

Should my child be in the Rock 101 CAMP or the Performance camp?

We get this question a lot.  Our Performance and Rock 101 camps often run during the same week and cost the same amount — which means we can easily move students between them to ensure they’re in the best place for their skill level and experience.   If you’re not sure which camp is the right fit, don’t worry — go ahead and reserve your spot before the week fills up. We’ll make sure your student is placed where they’ll learn the most and have the most fun.   You’re also welcome to stop by anytime! We’d be happy to sit down with you and your student, play a few songs, and help determine where they’ll thrive.

WHAT TO BRING

• Campers must bring their own (NUT-FREE) lunch, snacks and water bottle labeled with their name each day.

WHAT PARENTS ARE SAYING

"The camp was awesome and empowering for my child. Great combination of professionalism (great music) and fun. Despite being the youngest in his band my son felt very welcomed and included in the group and loved the people and Max the instructor. He will come back :)" - Yotam G.

 "My kid loved it! She came home the first day so animated and excited. She loved going every day, learned so much and can’t wait to go back. And bonus points for introducing her to great music and giving her a different kind of appreciation of it!" - Greta C.

"My child came home wanting to play the guitar every night and woke up in the morning and picked up his guitar. He made good friends and really enjoyed his teacher!"  - Zachary G.

"My kids felt hesitant and a little shy to jump into a summer music camp with basically no prior experience. After day one, they were already asking if they could sign up again. Leaders were engaging and fun and really connected with our kids. Our kids felt inspired, excited about music and came out their shells. We would definitely recommend this program (and already have!)" - Elliot H.

"Super friendly encouraging staff, fun programming, got my kid engaged and excited, great atmosphere that gets kids in the mood, and we were amazed at how much he learned in a short period of time. He had a great time!"  - Teddy T.
