Join facilitators Sarah Smith, Sabrina Read and newcomer Jonny Miller (Peach & Quiet) for a week of jamming, music mentorship, performances and (new this year) songwriting and sound recording! Campers select their role as either bass player, guitarist, keys, drummer or vocalist for the week! Throughout the week, campers will get to learn many songs with their band, have masterclasses to learn their instrument with one of our musical mentors, learn how to write a song, have the chance to record themselves, and perform in front of the rest of the campers daily. On the last day there will be an evening performance showcase at the Community Hall.
Band Camp is open to all ages 10 and up (adults, don't be shy to sign up!) and all skill levels of musicians - no prior knowledge of your instrument is necessary. The camp costs $360/person. Please contact us if you are unable to afford the fee as limited subsidies are available. Priority will be given to youth and first time applicants to spread the love around.
This camp is going to be an amazing opportunity for all ages to learn a new instrument or develop skills they already have and collaborate with other musicians in a band setting! And, having three professional musicians facilitate the week to create a true band atmosphere, means that this camp is more expensive than the usual Pender camps that are offered. We hope you’ll understand!
If any of you generous folks are interested in sponsoring a music loving kid or adult on the island we know that it would be very helpful for families! Email
