MusiCamp

Youth Service

Rotary MusiCamp

The MusiCamp™ program allows students to experience new cultures and make new friends, planting the seeds for greater international understanding. The Rotary District 5340 MusiCamp International Youth Exchange is unique in three respects:
 

  • It was the first music-based summer camp exchange program in Rotary;

  • It is the only youth exchange program conducted in partnership with a non-Rotary organization (San Diego Youth Symphony & Conservatory); and

  • It is the only camp where students must demonstrate a high skill level to participate.

Over the past nine years, MusiCamp has brought highly talented musicians from Canada, Czech Republic, Belgium, Bulgaria, France, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Germany, Mexico, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey and United Kingdom to San Diego where they joined with San Diego Youth Symphony members for two weeks of intense rehearsals, performance at symphony and chamber music events and a week touring Southern California theme parks, local beaches and other points of interest.
