The Greater Houston All Star Band, Inc. (GHASB) is a Texas (501c3) non-profit organization formed to empower youth through musicianship, character development, team building, and physical fitness. The band was founded in the summer of 2001 as a response to the reduction of financial support for fine arts departments within school systems. The Greater Houston All Star band prides itself in providing a “first class” band camp experience to economically challenged, yet deserving youth. The band’s greatest desire is to advance and improve the quality of music education through the use of certified and/or professionally trained/experienced instructors and clinicians. The Greater Houston All Star Band aspires to be the artistic portal that gives “At-risk” students in the Harris county and surrounding areas, the opportunity to attend a quality band camp that not only helps to restore in-depth instrumental music education, but also increases awareness about the importance of music as an important component in the complete education of students. To induce/foster a college bound culture, The Greater Houston All Star Band seeks to host its camp on and/or near a college campus.
