QBA Youth Brass Band Camps

2009 will see two QBA sponsored Youth camps.

The first QBA Youth Brass Band will be in conjunction with the McGregor Summer School in Toowoomba. It will be held in early January 2009. The official programme will be available soon. Please let the QBA secretary know if you would like some sent out to your band. They will also be available at the Nambour Festival of Brass. Musical Director for this camp will be Richard Evans from the UK.

The other QBA Youth Brass Band camp will be held in the second week of the June/July school holidays 2009. This camp will be run in conjunction with the Maryborough Music Conference and Education Queensland. Details for this camp will be available next month. We are also seeking expressions of interest for House Parents for this camp which will be held in Maryborough. Please let the QBA secretary know if you are interested.
