Girls Rock! Chicago Seeks Volunteers

Our good friends at Girls Rock! Chicago are seeking volunteers and workshop leaders for 2008's summer camp program. A week long camp for girls age 9 to 16, Girls Rock! Chicago provides instrument instruction, music composition coaching, recording workshops, song-writing workshops, hands-on activities, technical equipment workshops, guest speakers, team-building activities and band performances. The girls form bands the first day, and by the end of the week they get the live concert experience from onstage when they perform! The organizers are looking for volunteers in a variety of full and part time capacities, as well as workshop instructors for a variety of topics.

If you're unable to volunteer, you can still help Girls Rock! Chicago by donating online or contacting them about gear and instrument donations.

WOW's fave way to donate? For the month of June, Bleeding Heart Bakery will make a donation to Girls Rock! Chicago for every "charity cupcake" sold during the month of June. Talk about a tasty treat!

Thanks so much for mentioning our camp on your site!

In addition to the programs mentioned we are hosting a music gear drive this Sunday, June 29, at the Hideout to get more instruments to teach the girls with this summer.

Cheers!
