Peter Gomez the instructor from chino high school does a camp. For the past few years he does it at chino high school. I dont have any other info for you right now but i am sure if you call chino high school and get connected to the band room the band director would beable to tell you.

Woodbridge High School hosts a two week camp that involves flag, rifle, sabre, and dance. Instructors in the past have included Michael McNulty, Robert Hahn, Michael Shapeiro, and Susie Ferreira (Oh shoot, I probably butchered that one). The camp takes place usually in the beginning of August, and is in the evenings from about 5:30-9 o'clock.

If you are interested, let me know!

There is a GREAT camp at the University of Oregon. The guard program is taught by Tracy Wooten (Northern Lights). I trust the technical training my students received up there MUCH more than at the USA camps!

Let me know if you need help finding their contact inforamtion.

The camp at Woodbridge is GREAT...I've both attended that camp as a performer, and sent my kids to the camp as an instructor. I couldn't recommend the staff highly enough!!!
