Students entering the program are divided into two groups: the Bidi Bidis and the Bom Boms.

The monikers for the two classifications pay homage to the song “Bidi Bidi Bom Bom” by Tejano legend Selena Quintanilla.

The Bidi Bidis consist of kids ages 8 to 11 while the Bom Boms are ages 12 to 17.

At the 10th annual camp this past July, Arteaga completed her first year as a volunteer band coach with the Bidi Bidis, the same group she started out with seven years ago.

In Eagle Rock, Assemblymember Wendy Carrillo and volunteers danced at her small campaign headquarters to upbeat tunes like “Despacito” and Selena’s “Bidi Bidi Bom Bom” even though she was in fourth place.
