Pride Rock Camp

Tuition for week-long youth camps is $375.

We realize that not everyone can afford our suggested fees. To ensure camps are financially accessible, we use a sliding scale of $0-$375 to include a range of tuition amounts.

Girls Rock! Rochester, Inc. operates with very limited resources, and we rely heavily on donations and support from the community to sustain our programs.

We ask those who can afford to pay full price to do so.

Please consider your family income, resources, and dependents in the household when determining your tuition amount. The application form includes a section where you can indicate your request to apply for financial aid.

This process is honor-based and confidential. We do not require any supporting documentation for consideration, so we expect you to be honest in your assessment and statement of financial need.

Pride Rock Camp is a day camp, the hours are 9am-5pm.

Campers choose which instrument to learn:
guitar, bass, vocals, drums, or keyboard.

Please indicate first and second choice of instrument on the application.

Due to the need to acquire gear in advance, you cannot change your selection after you send in your application, and you cannot change instruments during the program.

Yes! Pride Rock Camp is for youth of all musical abilities.

Yes! You will have plenty of instruction in a non-judgemental and supportive environment.

No. All instruments will be provided at camp.

But if you have your own guitar or bass, you may bring it. Please note that Girls Rock! Rochester, Inc. does not accept liability for personal instruments.

Campers are selected by a committee seeking to establish a balanced and diverse camp population in relation to instrument, age, previous musical experience, economic status, geography and community. Campers are NOT selected on a first-come, first-serve basis and applying for camp does not guarantee admission. Your family's ability to pay will not affect your child's chance of admission to camp. GR!R strives to make camp accessible and available to all but due to space and resource limitations we cannot accept all applicants. Traditionally, some applicants may be placed on a waitlist and notified of acceptance when space becomes available.

GR!R's goal is to have the registration process as inclusive and as fair as possible. Many factors are considered in this process. We will hold multiple rounds of application review between April and June in an effort to help families plan their summers and still extend the opportunity to as many young people as possible. Final notifications about acceptance will be given by June 5th.

Thank you for your interest in GR!R's camp programs! Registration for GR!R programs (Girls Rock Camp and Pride Rock Camp) typically opens in April. If you have any questions about camper registration, please do not hesitate to contact our Program Director at info@girlsrockrochester.org.
