IMPORTANT! Directions to get to camp 2023
Due to the heavy winter snow and storms earlier this year, CalTrans has closed the main highway up to Angeles Crest Christian Camp for repairs. In order to get to Angeles Crest Christian Camp this summer (to go to Bellis Music Camp), each vehicle attending the camp must be escorted up the mountain by an Angeles Crest staff vehicle. All vehicles going to Bellis Music Camp should expect to meet at a designated location on Angeles Crest Highway to be escorted to and from the camp grounds.

History
Bellis Music Camp was founded in 1957 by music educator, Lawrence Bellis. Its purpose is to serve young musicians by creating an atmosphere where musical and social skills can be combined to bring out the best in each young person.
