Girls Rock Cincinnati Volunteer Application 2022
Girls Rock Cincinnati is seeking volunteers for our 2022 summer camp! Our weeklong summer camp focuses on creative arts as a vehicle for social change and provides our campers opportunities to build skills in instrumental music, vocals, songwriting, and visual arts. This year, we have 4 available volunteer positions. Aligning with our mission, we encourage applications from women and gender-expansive people ages 18+.
Counselors:
Summer camp is nothing without the counselors! Counselors are responsible for general supervision, safety, and most importantly, building relationships with our campers to create a supportive and encouraging environment. No prior music experience is required, but some experience working with kids and teens is preferred. Counselors must be available for the full duration of camp (9am-4pm) including the full camp day on Saturday.
Instrument Instructors:
The heart of rock camp is the rock, right? Instrument instructors are responsible for leading technical music education for our campers. We are seeking instructors for guitar, bass, drums, vocals, and keys. Lessons are held with small groups of campers and may involve co-teaching with another instructor. Music experience is required but skill- level is flexible. Instrument instructors must be available in the mornings (9am-11am) for the full week of camp.
Band Coaches:
Campers will be placed in bands to write and play their own original music for the Final Performance with the help of their coaches! Band Coaches need not have extensive musical expertise but should be able to encourage and guide our campers in their music creation. Each band will be assigned two Band Coaches, who must be available in the afternoons (1:30pm-3:30pm) for the full week of camp, as well as the full camp day (12pm-7pm) Saturday.
Photographer/Videographers:
Volunteer to capture the joy and magic of camp! Photos and videos taken will be posted to our website and social media with credit and may be used in the future for publicity or advertising. Photographers do not need to be available for the full week of camp - the schedule is flexible depending on your availability.
Don’t see a role that fits?
If you’re looking to get involved with camp but don’t see a position that fits your skills or schedule, please apply anyway! We will need additional hands on deck for camp set-up, teardown, and Saturday’s final performance. We would love to get to talk to you about what you can bring to the team.
