Rock Band Experience (Resident) 7/25-7/29/2016

Get Ready to Rock! Highlight include rehearsing with a band under the guidance of professionals, recording a CD, and performing a concert.  There are also workshops on the history of rock and the music business. Meet other musicians your age and create lasting memories playing the music you love.

Campers will be involved in all aspects of being in a band from writing songs and practicing, to performing and learning about the music business. Rehearsing songs as a group and working together is stressed and is an important aspect of the camp. 

By the end of the week students will gain a better understanding of what it takes to be in a band and the dedication, practice and hard work that goes along with it. Students will record the songs on the last day of the camp in the studio and will receive a copy of the CD shortly after the camp is completed.

Students Final Performance: On the Saturday evening following the camp, students will have the opportunity to perform at well-known venue and play on a professional stage with full sound and lighting systems. A DVD of the performance will be available as well. . Special guest appearances are in the works so stay tuned.

College Resident Experience Description:

William Paterson University lays down the foundation to prepare student for success, with an option to stay on campus to experience college life.  While the focus is on academics and learning, the social experience that results from bringing students together is an integral part of our summer program.  Students discover the joy of living, studying, and relaxing on a beautiful suburban university campus with state-of-the-art facilities, design, and technology. Students will participate in structured and supervised evening activities and dine in our cafeteria (students will be assigned a roommate and two suitemates).  Resident students will participate in evening enrichment workshops with other Pre-College summer youth residents’ on-campus for social activities. College students are hired to mentor, supervise and reside with the resident students.   

This is an opportunity not to be missed!
