• CAMP •
Girls Rock! Indy Camp is a day camp for girls (including female-identified and trans youth) ages 9-16.
Campers come for a week-long crash course in playing an instrument, being in a band, songwriting, self-confidence and awesome workshops! At the end of the week, campers get to perform their original song with their band live on stage.
• Volunteer •
Our organization depends on the hard work, input, and support of many individual volunteers, donors and business sponsors. Volunteers are essential to both the existence and the spirit of our camps. Our Board of Directors is a working board who give selflessly to ensure the success of our mission and to change young lives for the better.
