Schedule and Class Descriptions

Camp Gathering

The daily schedule is jam-packed with many opportunities to dance, sing, play music, take workshops and party. Whether you're a night owl or an early morning riser (or don't need much sleep), there is generally an organized event or opportunity for an impromptu gathering all day long and into the wee hours (see camp culture for more info).

You may choose to attend a class every period and participate in all extra events. Or you may prefer to take time off to visit with friends, rest, read a book from the paperback library, walk in the woods, or peruse the well-stocked bookstore and clothing boutique.

Either way, take this opportunity to try something new!

Dance course descriptions are below. See the Music page for descriptions of the music classes.
