Camp Merit
July 17 - July 21
Make friends, memories, and beautiful music at Camp Merit! Camp Merit brings all of Merit’s large ensembles together—band, choir, and orchestra—for 2 fun-filled weeks. Each student will select a track (band, choir, or orchestra) based on their main area of study. Band and orchestra students who enjoy singing also have the option to add the choir track to their schedules.
