\nIs it a Christian music camp? The site explains:<\/p>\n

“Camp Electric’s belief is that actual music (no lyrics) is amoral. That is, neither moral nor immoral. However, song lyrics have the ability to speak life or death. The main difference of our camp is that we encourage all of our students whether they are pursuing secular or Christian music to pursue their walk with Christ first. We actually encourage all types of music-Christian and secular. With that said, we also teach kids that the lyrics we meditate on and the artists we admire do matter. There will be no explicit lyrics at Camp Electric or admiration for artist that use them. “You wouldn’t put garbage in your mouth, so don’t put it in your mind.” All instructors at Camp Electric have personally given their testimony of Jesus Christ and seek to use their music to glorify Him.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The camp is designed for teens 13 to 18. Registration is limited, as is housing. The dorms for the girls are already filled for the first camp session. There is a discount for early registration by February 28.
\nIt’s been a long, long time since I was pricing summer camps for my own daughter, but even the early bird $750 registration price seems really expensive to me. But if you’re serious about music, I suppose a week-long session not only in rock-specific musical instruction but spiritual growth could be beneficial.
