SIGN UP! WTJU’s radio & podcast camps are back for summer 2024

Author: WTJU

Want to get behind the mic and make some great radio & podcasts? Then join WTJU this summer for one of our 2024 camps!

What:
Students will learn the basics of audio production, conduct interviews, and produce a podcast to air on WTJU’s sister radio station, WXTJ 100.1 FM! Students also learn about eclectic genres of music that make WTJU such a unique media operation.

In order to nurture a creative environment, WTJU’s radio & podcast camps are capped at a small number of students with a lot of support from camp staff. For the 2024 camps, we will have a student-teacher ratio of approximately 5-to-1.

Who:
Upper Elementary and Middle school students.

High school students can apply for a separate internship by contacting wtju@virginia.edu or calling 434-924-0885.

When:

Middle School camp (ages 11-14): June 17-21, 9am-3pm daily.

Upper Elementary School camp  (ages 8-11): June 24-28, 9am-3pm daily.

Middle + Upper Elementary School camp  (ages 8-14):  July 8-12, 9am-3pm daily.

Extended day child care with pickup by 5:30pm is available for an additional fee.

Where:
This year’s camps will be delivered in-person at WTJU’s studios: 2244 Ivy Road, Charlottesville.

Why:
Because podcasts and community radio are awesome. Plus, the camps seamlessly combine creativity, tech, and confidence-building.

$350
