As an update on the Rock n’ Roll Camp for Girls in Oregon that we're a wee obsessed with, we had to spread the word and let y’all know that the bad-ass ladies have expanded to the big apple, and are ready to rock.

Here’s the New York camp’s mission statement:

The Willie Mae Rock Camp for Girls is a non-profit educational arts program serving girls ages 8-18 from a range of socio-economic, racial, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds in New York City. The program will offer girls the chance to learn how to play musical instruments, write songs, perform, and participate in team-building activities in a supportive environment that fosters self-esteem, self-confidence, creativity, tolerance, and collaboration.

The camp session is only a week long during August, but they put on a kick-ass show on the 13th so the girls can strut (or should I say, strum) their stuff.

So if you're in New York and have a little lady at home that might enjoy some rocking out this summer, or would like to volunteer and join the fun, click here.

I know I’ll be in the front row come August.
