Joyful Noise! Music camp 2026, July 13-16, 9:00 am-1:00 pm
Joyful Noise! Music Camp is a FREE four-day event for students entering 2nd-8th grade in the fall. No previous musical experience is required.
This year's camp will be held from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, Monday, July 13 through Thursday, July 16 and will include lunch. There is no cost for this special event, but registration (due Friday, June 26) is required in order for us to adequately prepare.
You can register online via the QR code in the event photo, or at https://bit.ly/2026_joyfulnoise_registration. Additional registration forms are also available at the church office located at 45 N. Manning, Hillsdale.
The Joyful Noise! staff, led by Director of Music, Calista Brunett, includes several trained musicians and teachers who have a passion for helping children grow in the Christian faith.
The four-day event will have a vocal music emphasis, culminating in a choir performance at the end of the week, but students will also enjoy playing and learning about instruments and engaging in a variety of fun, music-related activities. The vocal music will be based on Biblical themes, and the whole camp experience aims to share and celebrate God’s love and creativity.
