Help us set up Bay Area Girls Rock Camp! Super vital! Knowledge of musical equipment and ability to lift 20+ pounds is useful though NOT required. Volunteering any amount of time between 12pm and 6pm will make a large impact and you will meet nice people! You are extra encouraged to help out if you know how to assemble a drum kit. We also need help breaking down camp on Saturday, July 2nd, 12:30-6pm in case you're interested. :)

Mission Statement
Bay Area Girls Rock Camp is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that empowers young people through music, promoting an environment that fosters self-confidence, creativity and teamwork. Although our camp centers the experiences of young women, we are committed to gender justice and creating an inclusive environment that supports a wide range of marginalized gender identities and expressions. BAGRC challenges gender stereotypes, encourages collaboration and tolerance among peers, and provides a comfortable space for people of all backgrounds to express themselves. Through music lessons, workshops, group activities, and performances, rock campers acquire skills that help guide them throughout their lives.
