Our inaugural marching band student leadership camp is designed to refine and enhance current drum major skills, introduce and develop skills to potential drum majors, and refine and reinforce teaching skills for student music and marching staff.
Our goal is to train students so that they are competent and reliable where directors are confident that good work is being done from the podium and behind the scenes every day of the season.
Our staff are outstanding music educators with marching band, drum corps and drum major experience at all levels.
Eligible Students have completed 9th grade and are either already named as a drum major or staff member, or would like to enhance their skills to serve as a staff member in their future marching activities.
All participants should bring their primary instrument and be prepared to play during portions of the clinics.

UTSA All-State Choir CampThe UTSA All-State Choir Camp continues to be a leader in the Texas All-State Choir preparatory process (Large School only). Outstanding clinicians from prominent Texas high school music programs along with UTSA’s own superb conductors and faculty provide an intensive study of the All-State audition music to high school campers from across the state of Texas. All students who will be in grades 9-12 in the 2026–2027 academic school year and are planning to participate in the All-State process are welcome to register to get a head start on learning their music. Choristers who are not planning to participate in the All-State process are also welcome to join for a fun few days of singing and making friends. Campers will also have the opportunity to get to know the beautiful UTSA campus, learn about life as a UTSA student, and enjoy games, a talent show and more! Link: https://www.utsamusiccamps.com/
