\"AustinClarksville, TN<\/strong> – As it prepares for its sixth year, Camp Granada, Austin Peay State University Department of Music\u2019s summer music day camp, continues to expand its mission of providing area children with an opportunity to develop a life-long love of music.<\/p>\n

The theme for Camp Granada 2017 is \u201cKids at Work,\u201d and students will explore the history of music in the workplace.<\/p>\n

The campus of Austin Peay State University. (APSU)<\/p><\/div>\n

From sailors singing as they lift heavy sails to railroad workers hammering to a tune, music has been a central part of work since the beginning of time.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s theme will teach campers about many types of work songs from different cultures, and other ways people have used music to do a job, pass the time during work or just to make a tedious job a little more fun.<\/p>\n

Activities include singing, playing instruments, movement, listening, music literacy, and summer-camp style games and activities that continue to expose students to content and skills from the day\u2019s lessons. The week concludes with a student performance of the music and skills that have been developed through the week.<\/p>\n

Camp Granada is open to public, private and home-schooled students age 6 (having completed kindergarten) through 11 (having completed 5th grade). The APSU session is open to the general public (including private school and homeschool students and public school students from Clarksville and surrounding counties) and additional sessions are open to students who attend the hosting school. Early-bird registration is $75.00 ($50.00 for each additional sibling) and includes a camp T-shirt.<\/p>\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=MI4rY1z6SjU<\/a>\n
