Girls Rock Lawrence campers perform the "Girls Rock Lawrence" theme song at the second annual GRL camp showcase on Saturday, June 11, 2016 at Liberty Hall.

Girls Rock Lawrence celebrated the end of its second annual camp week on Saturday at Liberty Hall. Campers in seven bands performed original songs to a crowd of hundreds of family, friends and local music supporters.

Now in its second year, Girls Rock Lawrence hosted campers June 6-10 at the Lied Center of Kansas. Girls Rock accepts campers ages 12-18 who identify as female, trans or gender non-conforming.

Throughout the camp week, volunteers coach campers on topics ranging from instrument instruction to stage presence to songwriting.
