NEWS FROM 2010 RCS SUMMER PROGRAM
Rock Camp Studio summer program is an ever evolving project.  In June of 2010 a total of 10 campers had control of the entire Rock Camp building!

Instead of having a Showcase, campers created a unique digital audio or multi media project (i.e. podcasts, video projects, digital recordings, etc.)

Campers also had the opportunity to learn about everything from live sound and digital muli-track recording to podcasts and video production.  This was an exciting opportunity for campers to learn how to share their music/ art/ voice with an international audience via the Internet!


For more information, email camp@girlsrockcamp.org
