Yorkton Band Camp - Jr Leader
August 16 - 21, 2026
Registration Deadline: August 02, 2026
This year Yorkton area high school band students interested in being involved with the Band Camp have a Special Opportunity. The SBA is organizing a formal Junior Leader Program that will run concurrently with the Yorkton Band Camp. The Junior Leader program welcomes grade 9-12 band students .
The Yorkton Band Camp Junior Leader program provides students with a unique opportunity to develop both their leadership and musical skills. Throughout the week-long camp, Junior Leaders will help organize activities, assist with supervising Yorkton Band Camp participants, and serve as positive role models for younger musicians. In addition to these leadership responsibilities, participants will rehearse and perform in a Junior Leader ensemble, present performances for the local community, and take part in leadership workshops designed to build communication, teamwork, and organizational skills.
The Junior Leader program will combine leadership and musicianship development alongside fun and teamwork. Junior Leaders will assist with camp set up and operations throughout the week. As a result, the Junior Leader program will overlap to overall Band Camp schedule with Junior Leader start and finish times each day slightly longer than the standard Band Camp 8:30am - 5:00pm schedule.
A detailed schedule – including refined start/end times for the camp - will be sent out closer to the camp start date.
