I have no affiliation with this camp, just an affection for the facility. It was a great pleasure attending a brass workshop there (about three eons ago), doing my daily routine in a barn loft and enjoying the view of the St. Lawrence valley.

You will be relaxed and focussed on music because there really isn’t anything near the place.

You just lost your job with the local tourism bureau.

This being one of the most beautiful corners of my homeland, I feel compelled to rectify ;)

To be fair, there's "not much to do" in terms of it being not near any city, and in terms of nightlife (although then again plenty of nightlife on campus, apparently!), but it's a gorgeous region, and there's lot of sights to see and outdoors to enjoy!

(it's also a major music workshop with world-class faculty)

Yes, I meant that it is a place conducive to concentration and focus.

And yes to the above comment that groups of (younger mostly) brass players tend to make their own fun at the end of the day.
