Beginning Band Program

Thinking about learning a woodwind, brass, or percussion instrument? Starting band at school next year? Our Beginning Band Program is the perfect way to get a head start! Every Beginning Band camper will be provided with an instrument when they arrive at camp. With the help of our amazing faculty, you’ll learn everything from how to put your instrument together, to playing your very first note, all the way to your first performance! It’s a fantastic opportunity to try something new, make music, and have fun while making new friends.

The Beginning Band is led by Jessica Puskar from the Toronto Youth Wind Orchestra and her creative, energetic approach to teaching inspires young musicians to reach goals they didn’t think were possible, all while keeping the experience exciting and fun!

Instruments Offered

Woodwinds: Flute, Clarinet, Saxophone, Oboe, Bassoon
Brass: Trumpet, French Horn, Trombone, Euphonium, Tuba
Percussion: A wide variety of instruments to explore

A Typical Day

When you’re not making music, camp is packed with awesome activities! Spend your afternoons on the water sailing, swimming, waterskiing or tubing. Or you can stay on land for beach volleyball, tennis, basketball, tetherball, Gaga Ball, and even mini-golf. The fun doesn’t stop when the sun goes down. Get ready for campfires, a corn roast, talent shows, movie nights, and all the classic camp traditions that make summer unforgettable.
