Duration : We offer 8-11 week contracts beginning June 15 or June 22, 2008.

Info

The Rock Farm is The Ballibay Camps' Rock-n-Roll camp experience, for boys and girls ages 8 to 16. We are looking for Rock'N'Roll instructors and studio/sound engineers.

Each summer, 50 talented men and women gather on our Pennsylvania mountaintop to create an exciting, rewarding and safe environment for children. Our staff members are creative individuals who care about children, education and the arts; they are students, educators and artists with diverse backgrounds and experience who share a common interest in nurturing, supporting and teaching young people in a non-competitive, individual choice setting.

Benefits: Staff members are employed for 8 to 11 weeks. Staff members can draw on their earned salary at any time. Room and board are provided, and it is quite possible to live at camp all summer completely expense free.

All staff members attend a complete orientation before camp begins. Staff members receive 1 day off per week and every other night off. All camp facilities are available to staff members during their time off, except horseback riding. The food is excellent for omnivores and vegetarians alike. On-campus facilities specifically for staff members include laundry, computers, e-mail, a phone, and a comfy lounge with a TV/VCR, refrigerator, pool table, and more.

Most teaching staff members are also cabin counselors. Cabin counselors live with at least one other staff member and 10-14 campers. The Rock Farm is an activity-oriented camp; staff members spend only 2.5 hours each day with their cabin groups and 5.5 hours a day in specialty areas working with motivated campers! The Rock Farm is a magical place. Come join us!

MUSIC & ROCK'N'ROLL INSTRUCTORS

Music Instructors teach individual and group classes based on camper interest, and organize bands and ensembles based on the compatibility and skills of interested campers.

Our Rock'n'Roll Program is part of our music program; Rock'n'Roll is a term we use very broadly to include modern and classic rock, pop, folk, and other styles.

Our Rock'n'Roll instructors teach guitar, bass, drums and recording. Bands are organized and directed by the rock staff, and bands perform in our two band nights each summer and in selected talent shows. We also place an emphasis on recording, and our rock staff teach four-track recording and mixing.

Rock'n'Roll instructors are also cabin counselors (see benefits section).
