The OU Percussion Camp is a marching percussion training course for 8th - 12th grade students (8th grade with at least one year of experience). Students will work with some of the top state, and nationally renowned percussion instructors. The students preferred choice of marching percussion will be available to play at camp: snare drum, bass drum, tenors, and front ensemble. Students will be grouped into ensembles based on experience and ability level, and will have the opportunity to play in sections (drumline and front ensemble) or in a full percussion ensemble setting.
In addition to quality percussion instruction, students will also receive a OU Percussion Camp t-shirt, certificate of completion, name badge, and the potential to win special prizes graciously provided by Edmond Music. Edmond Music will have a booth available in the afternoon for students or parents looking to purchase sticks/mallets for the upcoming marching season.
Due to unforeseen university housing constraints and availability issues, we will unfortunately be cancelling the 2026 Sooner Summer Percussion Camp. We are fully committed to the 2027 camp and will be back with exciting evolutions to the student experience! Thank you for your understanding. We hope to see you in 2027!
