Answer 1

enjoy yourself and relax a bit. The band camp will work with any skill levels. Keep practicing according to schedule and when you go feel confident that you have done your best. Dont forget that they know its a social experience also, so learn your tunes and be ready to make some great friendships. Stress will destroy your practice. If you go feeling comfortable you will play better, learn better, and enjoy your experiences. Dont worry too much!
