MISSION

Girls' Rock Camp-ATHENS is a non-profit organization (seeking 501(c)(3)status) whose mission is to build female youth empowerment through music education and creation. By providing the girls with a safe place to express themselves we are aiding the girls in their development as freethinking individuals. We are run completely by dedicated volunteers who serve as a positive community of female mentors.

PROGRAMS

Girls' Rock Camp-ATHENS will be a six day summer camp for girls ages 9 through 15. Campers will be instructed in guitar, bass, keyboards, drums or vocals and will participate in workshops constructed to aide their development as confident females. The girls will also form bands and write their own songs to perform in a live showcase at the end of the camp week. We believe in maintaining an emphasis on accessibility to ensure that girls have access to equipment and instruction regardless of their socio-economic background, race, ethnicity, or neighborhood.

Hopefully, Girls' Rock Camp-ATHENS will become a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that offers multiple summer sessions, after school programming, ladies' rock camp programming, winter vacation programming, and weekend programming.
