WHO MAY REGISTER FOR CAMP: Any girl who will be between the ages of 10 and 16 during the camp session may register for camp. Girls 17 and 18 years old can apply to be a CIT (Counselor in Training). No experience is necessary and you don’t have to live in Atlanta to register (please see below for more information about out-of-town campers). Note: girls must be 10 years old at the time of camp to attend.

TUITION: Is $325 per camper and includes six days of camp, all instrument and workshop instructions, workshop supplies, camp t-shirt, camper backstage pass, and instrument loan (if needed). The fee is due upon receipt of your registration form. The camp and instrument selections are on a first come, first served basis.

LUNCH: Rock Camp does not provide lunch for campers. Each camper needs to bring lunch each day. However, if you are eligible for free lunch at school and would like free lunch at camp, please let us know and we will do our best to make arrangements for lunch to be provided.

INSTRUMENT INSTRUCTION: You can choose to study guitar, bass, drums, or keyboards. Please select only ONE first choice instrument and only ONE second choice instrument on the registration form. We will do our best to accommodate your first or second choice but instrument assignments are dependent on supply and are assigned on a first come first served basis. Due to the need to acquire the gear we need in advance, you may not change your selection after you submit your registration form, and you may not change during the camp session. If you are not assigned an instrument of your choice, DON’T WORRY, you’re still going to have a really good time!

MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS: Instruments and one pair of earplugs may be provided for use during the camp week (you can keep the earplugs!). If you have your own guitar/amp, bass/amp, or keyboard/amp, PLEASE BRING IT. However, please note that Rock Camp does not accept liability for personal instruments.

We will include more information, including the required release form, in out-of-town campers’ information packets; upon receipt of the completed form, we will provide host family information as available. It’s up to the out-of-town family to make contact with the host family and make all arrangements independently.
