Intern Application | Girls Rock Dallas

Apply to be an Intern at Camp

This is a special opportunity for older, experienced campers to get more involved behind the scenes at camp, develop leadership skills and transition into becoming a Girls Rock Dallas volunteer or organizer in the future.

A limited number of intern positions are available for ages 14-17 who have attended Girls Rock Dallas summer camp in the past. Interns will have the option of forming an “Intern Band,” rehearsing during camp week and performing at the showcase. Interns assist in instrument instruction, band practice, assemblies and roadying. They may also apprentice for sound and learn and play the camp song during assemblies and at the Showcase. They will be required to be part of our general support crew and roadie crew during camp week.

Interns must be available at minimum Sunday, July 12 , 2020, through Saturday July 18, 2020. Availability before and after those dates is a big plus. Interns do not pay to attend camp. Recommendation letters and proof of internship are happily granted upon completion of your internship.

Financial Assistance
Girls Rock Dallas seeks to offer financial assistance to all campers who may otherwise not be able to attend our camp. Applying for financial assistance will neither increase nor decrease your chances of being accepted into the program. We encourage you to ask for assistance if you need it. Please consider your family income, resources and dependents in the household when determining your financial aid request amount. This process is honor-based and confidential. Directions: Fill out this form, one for each camper for whom you are applying. Electronically sign and submit the form with your program application. You may be contacted for a follow-up phone interview.
How much can you pay towards your child's camp cost?
What is the annual income of your family?
Are you a single income family?
Do you participate in the free lunch program at your school?
Do you need lunch to be provided for your camper? Please note that due to limited resources, Girls Rock Dallas will only be providing lunch for campers with demonstrated financial need. If your child receives free or reduced price lunch at school, or if providing lunch is a financial burden for your family, then your child will be eligible for a camp lunch. Don't hesitate to let us know if any of these circumstances apply to your family. Girls Rock Dallas will continue to provide a morning and afternoon snack for all campers.
