Music and Activities
Daily Schedule
A simple, balanced day helps campers grow musically and enjoy everything camp has to offer.
Morning

Evening
The Music
Campers rehearse with outstanding middle school and high school band directors who bring years of experience and a passion for music education. Sight-reading is at the heart of SLBC. Throughout the week, bands explore a variety of music and select three to five pieces to perform at the closing concert.
Sectionals are led by directors and counselors, and both are available to meet with campers individually whenever they need a little extra help. Daily rehearsals and sectionals run from 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM, with breaks throughout the day.
Auditions
Auditions are non-competitive and designed to help us understand each camper’s playing level. This allows us to place campers in comfortable, well-balanced groups and ensure a positive experience for everyone.
For more details, please visit the Auditions section on the Camp Information page.

Afternoon, evening, and late-night rec times offer a mix of fun activities, including:

Counselors in Training (CIT) Program
Campers entering their senior year of high school or who have recently graduated are encouraged to join the Counselors in Training (CIT) Program. CITs support daily camp life by helping counselors facilitate activities, check cabins, and assist with camp activities. Throughout the week, they serve as positive role models for younger campers and help build a welcoming, inclusive environment.
CITs spend time working on personal goals and growth, team building skills, and how to lead and communicate — with support and guidance from our counselors and staff along the way.
More details about the CIT program will be shared after registration.
