What’s Different About Our Summer Camp This Year?
EG Camp 2018 is better than ever in a whole lot of ways!
-
Camp hours are extended an extra hour and a half! With drop off as early as 8:00AM each day and pick up this year is at 3:30PM! Our first master class of the day kicks off promptly at 8:30AM each morning! We’ve added more time to make room for more music programming each day!
-
More guitar instruction! This season students receive guitar lessons 5 days a week (last year was 4). Our older campers in grades 3 through 5 (based on enrollment) will also take our ETI class daily: which focuses on advanced ensemble technique and improvisation.
-
This Summer all campers will have an additional, brand new ensemble based music class, 5 days a week. It’s called “World Music Jump and Jam Session.” These are daily 45 minute jam sessions incorporating guitar, percussion and movement (last year percussion was 1 day per week)! We are developing our students sense of rhythm, giving them an opportunity to work together as a band, and celebrating the outcome of creative cooperation!
-
We found our campers craving informal down-time to rehearse together last summer, and we love that! So, this Summer more free guitar practice time is built into the day!
