4 Music Camp Favorites
Summer Music Camp ranks at the top of the list for summer fun. Camp activities incorporate fun, friends, and music into a week of musical exploration. Many of our campers claim that Summer Camp is the highlight of their summer. Here are 4 reasons Summer Music Camp is a favorite activity for the summer.
Explore Musical Instruments
There’s always something new to explore in music-whether it’s a new song, a new sound, or a new skill. Summer camp offers a great introduction for campers who are interested in developing their musical talents. During camp, campers who are new to music have the opportunity to try out different instruments to decide their favorite instrument. Campers with musical experience are grouped with other campers with similar skills so they can enjoy taking the next step in their musical journey.
Play Music with other Campers
One of the unique opportunities campers enjoy during camp is making music with other musicians. During small group classes, students learn the importance of listening to other musicians, keeping a steady beat, and following the director. In playing together as a group, campers begin to transform the notes on a page into beautiful musical sounds. One of the highlights of camp is the Camp Celebration Recital on Friday when all campers join together to play the camp song. There’s something truly amazing that happens when everyone joins together to share their talents.
Make New Friends
Campers participate in small groups based on their age, musical interests, and musical abilities. Campers connect with other children who have their same interests. They play music together, hang out, and enjoy getting to know each other. Camp is a great way to build new friendships.
Have Fun Celebrating Music
Every camp activity is designed to share the joy of music with campers. We think music is an awesome gift from God and we want campers to have fun exploring the gift of music. We want to celebrate each camper’s unique talent as they learn new music.
We’d love for you to join us for a fun-filled week of musical exploration, making new friends, and celebrating Jesus! Campers will have a great time exploring different patterns and speeds of music, playing with other musicians, and expressing music creatively while also enjoying many other fun activities.
