The kids at Kenwal Day Camp in Melville, NY, couldn’t wait for the musicians to take the stage — Thomas Fiss, Alex York and Josiah Rea were all on hand to rock out. Good times were had before the concert as well, with activities and prizes up for grabs including a viewing of Cartoon Network’s Unnatural History, hula-hoop contests sponsored by Cirque du Soleil’s Wintuk, guitar lessons and loads more.

The girls at Camp Kippewa in Monmouth, ME, were beyond thrilled when Camplified arrived with tons of fun, music and branded activities. Thomas Fiss, Josiah Rea and Michael and Marisa were on hand to liven up the crowd with a few tunes — Josiah and Michael even lent a helping hand during the Epiphone-sponsored guitar clinic. The Juicy Juice was flowing and the Stardoll T-shirt design contest was a huge hit. View our exclusive pics, above! Photos courtesy of Greg Leddy.
Campers at Rolling River Day Camp in Oceanside, NY, were in for a treat when Camplified rolled into camp with Ashlyne Huff, Josiah Rea and Thomas Fiss. Both the singers and campers had an absolute blast with prizes, giveaways and a Meet & Greet. Secrets of My Hollywood Life author Jen Calonita even made an appearance to discuss her books and do a book signing for the campers. This day was also Camp Crew member Tenia‘s birthday, who got a sweet b-day shout-out from Thomas Fiss! Check out some of our exclusive photos above, featuring musicians and campers alike having a rolling-good time! Photos courtesy of Greg Leddy.

Camplified made a stop at Camp KinderRing in Hopewell Junction, NY, back on July 18, and it looks like the campers had an absolute blast! Featuring performances by Thomas Fiss, Cody Simpson and Josiah Rea, the concert completely rocked and the Meet & Greet after the show was equally enjoyable. Campers also got to decorate Stardoll T-shirts and sip on Juicy Juice — sounds like my kinda party!
We want to see how creative you can get! Camplified 2010 sponsor EdisonLearning is looking for original videos of kids, tweens, teens (and anyone really) singing, playing an instrument or just plain rocking out to EL’s new theme song, “The Power of You,” by Eddie Bush of Lucky Bush Publishing. The five best PoY renditions will be judged and selected by Camplified artists (including members of Thomas Fiss‘ band, Cody Simpson and Michael and Marisa), as well as music industry insiders. If you’re selected, you will win an iPod Shuffle, a $20 iTunes gift card and a prize pack courtesy of Epiphone Guitars! Click HERE to listen to and download “The Power of You” theme song. Then head on over to our YouTube group to upload your video by July 30. Participants (campers or non-campers, U.S. only) must adhere to our Camplified Contest Rules. You may also email your YouTube videos to campchick@camplified.com.
Camplified made a stop at Mid Island Y JCC in Plainview, NY, on July 14 and the campers couldn’t have been more psyched! The Camp Crew arrived with a van full o’ fun with activities and giveaways sponsored by Cartoon Network, Juicy Juice, Scholastic, Epiphone Guitars and more. The band line-up included pop/rock artist Josiah Rea, singer/songwriter Thomas Fiss and alternative rockers Jessica Prouty Band.

Hello from the road!!! My name is Holly, and I’m part of the road crew that is bringing Camplified to a camp near you. So far, we have visited seven camps, and every day is so much fun! Not only does the crew help out with the music, setting up the bands and such, but we also bring the activities to life that the campers participate in. Of course, we also make time to jump in the lake and bounce on the trampoline with artists like Josiah Rea.
I spend much of my time helping out at the Penguin Books tent, and my favorite activity to do there is make luggage tags. I’ve been teaching the campers to make luggage tags out of duct tape and everyday the kids get more and more creative! I have seen tags in the shape of guitars, puppies, names, boxes and one girl even made an actual purse. The idea for the luggage tags was inspired by the Penguin book by Robin Palmer, Yours Truly, Lucy B. Parker: Girl Vs. Superstar, because, just like campers, Lucy uses her backpacks and suitcases to travel. Luggage tags not only decorate your bag, but they could save you from losing your bag forever!
I am so excited to see what ideas the campers come up with next. I’ll have to keep you posted… for now, check out some of my personal photos from the tour, below. -Holly

The Camplified vans rolled into Clarksburg, NJ, to visit Black Bear Lake Day Camp on Thursday, and not surprisingly, the campers were STOKED! Pop rock brother/sister duo Michael and Marisa brought the rock, along with Josiah Rea and others. Our photos say it all:

So I know CampLifeguard gave you the rundown on yesterday’s first Camplified tour stop at Golden Slipper. Josiah Rea, Jessica Prouty Band and Thomas Fiss most certainly brought the rock.
