Around the world people love animals. This year at Camp Granada, campers will learn how cultures around the world celebrate their animals through songs, artwork, games, folktales, and celebrations. Campers will sing traditional animal songs from around the world including the Barnyard Song, Animal Fair, and Kookabura. Campers will explore animals in classical music with Camille Saint-Saëns’ Carnival of the Animals, and in literature through children’s author and illustrator, Eric Carle. Finally, campers will explore animals in the world’s celebrations including Holi (India), Dia de los Muertos (Mexico) and the Chinese New Year.
Each summer, lives of children across the country are changed forever through the powerful impact of summer camps. However, while sports camps abound in great numbers, there are few summer camp opportunities for children interested in music. Camp Granada began from a desire to fill that void, and to offer the same kind of life-changing, character building summer camp experience to young musicians that is more commonly offered in other areas. Camp Sessions in Clarksville are sponsored by the APSU Music Education program in partnership with the CMCSS school system. This cooperation was developed to benefit the music programs in local elementary schools, by using Camp Granada as a fund-raising opportunity for the music programs in campuses that host a camp session.
If you are new to Camp Granada, I hope this video (below) gives you an idea about what we do at camp. This video features highlights of the 2018 season "On the Move"
