Fort Zumwalt Middle School Band Camp
Founded in 2018, the Fort Zumwalt Middle School Band Camp is a four-day band camp for rising 7th and 8th grade band students from any of the four Fort Zumwalt middle schools. Students are placed in a concert band with other students in their grade level and get to work with a special guest conductor. In addition, every day of camp also features a break-out masterclass session with a professional musician on each specific instrument.
