| Description |
An
exquisite mountaintop campus, multiple rock studios, acoustic and
electronic drum kits, amplifiers, guitars and basses of all types,
keyboards, large assortment of percussion instruments are combined to
create The Rock Farm. TRF's program offers lessons daily in guitar,
drums, and/or bass guitar; songwriting and improvisation classes;
staff-directed bands; and great performance and recording opportunities.
Campers spend most of their day in band rehearsals, music lessons, and
individual practice time, while still having time each day to try other
activity areas.
Campers also have access to programs at The Rock Farm’s sister camp,
Camp Ballibay, including a theater program (one-act plays), a camp radio
station, fine arts (painting, drawing, ceramics, photography,
printmaking), horseback riding program, swimming instruction, daily
sports activities, and movement programs. Camp meals emphasize health,
seasonality, whole local ingredients and sustainability. An on-site
garden provides some produce and opportunities for camper
participation.
Sessions range from 2 to 8 weeks in length for boys and girls ages 8-16. |
