School of Rock camps boost interest, ends in show
By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel resident Kristin Rauh called enrolling her son Aidan, now a Guerin Catholic High School freshman, in his MUSIC first School of Rock summer camp in 2013 one of the best decisions she ever made. “Being totally immersed in the music for five days allowed Aidan to explore his interest with several different instruments,” Rauh said. “The summer camp gave us an opportunity to trial the School of Rock program and introduced us to the amazing instructors and staff. We loved it so much we’ve been with the program ever since.” Amy Tobias said the camps have been the perfect thing for her son Sam, a Carmel Middle School eighth-grader, to do in the summer. “School of Rock is a wonderful atmosphere for kids to not only grow their musical talents, but also grow their confidence and teamwork and develop great friendships,” Tobias said. Sam is signed up for the Classic Metal camp this summer. Elyse Causey, School of Rock regional manager, said this is the seventh year of camps in Carmel and the second year in Fishers. “The beginner camp might be our most popular,” Causey said. “It’s a great way for
younger kids to not only start learning an instrument but to become fully immersed in learning one, and to really jumpstart their learning. Parents are always amazed that when they drop their kid off on Monday having never picked up an instrument before, and they come back for the end of the week show on Friday, their kid is not only playing an instrument but playing in a band, and playing fun rock songs.” Causey said students who have been playing for a longer period have their choice of themed camps: a Foo Fighters camp in either Carmel or Fishers, or a Classic Metal or Songwriting camp in Carmel. “These camps are designed to help push students in their skills on their instrument in drums, keyboard, guitar, bass or vocals by being fully immersed in playing in a band setting for a full week,” Causey said. “The students perform eight to 10 songs on Friday afternoon on the patio at Soho Cafe in Carmel or the Kroger patio in Fishers in front of family and friends.” Causey said the Fishers site is offering a shortened summer camp for ages 6 to 7 in the week-long rookies camp, which will meet for three hours each day.

Experienced and novice sailors ages 8 to 17 will have a chance to learn something new during IndiaON THE WATER napolis Sailing Club’s Junior Training Camp on Geist Reservior in one-week sessions for six weeks beginning June 18. “I really believe that this camp, other than being such a unique experience by being on the water and learning how to sail and being in a sailboat, it teaches a lot of good, lifelong lessons,” sailing camp director Michelle Sarber said. “We talk about the weather, we do a lot of knot tying, and knowing how to sail is just one of those skills. We have kids 4 years old and sailing and older adults in their 80s still sailing. It’s really a lifelong sport.” In addition to the Junior Training Camp, which targets novice, intermediate and advanced levels, the Indianapolis Sailing Club will offer a new, three-day race camp for advanced sailors only. The camps run from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day. Kids are encouraged to bring their own lunch and are required to bring a life jacket. Some of the camp takes place in a

Sixty campers will be accepted for each summer session. “The purpose of Camp Crosser is to provide our local youth with an opportunity to step outside into nature and experience the adventures it has to offer. Camp is an experience that every kid deserves, and there’s nothing like watching their faces light up that first time they experience our zip line across the White River,” Helm said. “In a high-tech, fast-paced world, our kids need that chance to step away from their devices while learning and exploring the great outdoors.”

Camps range in prices, beginning at $150 for three hours a day for one week. Registrants have the opportunity to sign up their children for two sessions a day for a full-day camp as well. Camp sites this year include Zionsville, Carmel, Indianapolis, Avon, Noblesville and Fishers. Although Indy STEM has offered other types of camps in the past, Indy STEM Camps director Matthew Mullholland said Minecraft camps are the most well-received. “Minecraft is such a popular game among elementary and middle school children because it allows children to explore and create and to use their imaginations like

no other computer game can,” he said. “Our camps provide a safe and secure social environment that integrates STEM through the use of a computer game that students know and love.” Among the different camps, kids learn coding, 3-D printing and more by playing Minecraft. “It is a setting that allows them to develop STEM-related skills in a game they already know and love,” Mullholland said.

Cathedral camps unique
editorial@youarecurrent.com
Camp Cathedral will kick off its annual summer camp programming in early June with nearly 40 camp programs, STEM and this year, the camps are unique, covering many areas of interest, including academic and STEM camps, to camps on cooking, writing and filmmaking and more. But some camps, like the week-long Mermaids & Unicorns Camp for kids in Kindergarten to grade 3, may stand out among the rest. Camps on popular book and film franchises, like Harry Potter and Star Wars, along with the annual Superhero Camp, also will stand out. About a dozen of Cathedral’s camps have a strong science, technology, engineering and math tie, covering popular themes like Minecraft and Lego. New camps include a Moana Island Adventure Camp that follows the Disney animated film “Moana,” a Lost World of Dinosaurs Camp, and a We the People Constitutional Law Camp. Additional academic programming fills out approximately half of Cathedral’s summer camps roster with a strong focus on

media production, including filmmaking, photography, writing, speech giving, graphic design, journalism and more. One camp, Service to Create a Smile Camp, will give students in grades 4 to 8 the opportunity to give back within the Indianapolis community. Kids who take part in this camp will work with area charitable nonprofits. Cathedral’s most popular camps are its adventure camps. Selling out last summer, the adventure camps are offered in five sessions through June and July for grades 5 to 9.
