Oct 2024 – Due to not meeting minimum numbers, the BANSW and HRBA Committees have determined that it would be best to postpone the camp for this year and move it a new weekend of 28 February to 2 March.  Details will remain the same. Please look out for further information about this change in date in the next few weeks.

 

The Band Association of NSW is fully committed to scheduling a Brass Youth Camp on the newly updated dates of 28 February to 2 March, 2025.

In collaboration with the Hunter Regional Band Association, the camp will take place at CRU Lake Mac Camp and Conference Centre.

This year’s camp will be geared towards Brass Band players aged 12 to 22. Participants have the option to attend as day visitors or stay overnight at the campsite. Refine skills by learning from top conductors and mentors who have been carefully selected.

We have planned lots of fun activities, some great charts to play with a concert for parents and friends at the end.

COST:

Band Association of NSW members: $250 (full board and meals)

Non-members: $300 (full board and meals)

Day Cost: $80 Association Members, $95 Non-Association Members

Click here to register your spot today. Registration for this camp will close towards the end of January 2025. An invoice for payment for camp costs will be issued once we confirm that we have reached minimum required numbers.
