Every year, GRNC hosts an incredible summer camp dedicated to building community and power among girls, transgender youth, and gender expansive youth through musical collaboration, political education for social change, and creative expression.
We welcome rising 3rd through 10th graders to join us as Campers!
Rising 11th and 12th graders should apply as Youth Mentors!

THE YOUTH MENTOR EXPERIENCE
Youth Mentors are volunteers who are rising 11th or 12th graders or people who are ages 16-18 at the start of camp.
YMs are a bridge between the camper and volunteer/staff experience, which means they get to both work with volunteers/staff to coordinate and facilitate camp while also having the chance to (if interested) form bands, have daily band practice, and perform in the showcase!

GRNC will not be holding camp in Raleigh this year due to organizational capacity shifts, two staff transitions, and other factors. As an organization, we are committed to sustaining our ability to hold camp for years to come and to prioritizing our collective wellness in the process. We are also committed to assisting camper parents based in the Raleigh area find reliable carpool options for camp this year. If this is required, please contact us at info@girlsrocknc.org.
NOTE ON LOCATION
In recognition of rising COVID rates and in alignment with GRNC's core values, this year's policy is that masking is required indoors for campers and volunteers. A negative PCR test is not required. If feeling sick, camper must stay home. This policy enables camp to remain accessible for our immunocompromised campers, volunteers, and organizers.
