String Camp
Saturday June 17 - Thursday June 22, 2023
A residential or commuter camp for strings players entering grades 5-10 with a minimum nine months of playing experience! You'll make new friends whether you stay on campus with us or return home in the evenings. Come grow as a musician through rehearsals, sectionals, and a final performance!

Cost
We make every effort to keep camp as affordable as possible. Campers may attend as either residents or commuters, and most expenses are covered. Payment plans are also available when you register.
- Resident - $590 fee covers all room and board (three meals per day), admission fees and activities supplies.
- Commuter - $490 fee covers lunch and each day plus admission fees and activities supplies. Commuters are dropped off each morning between 8:15-8:30 a.m. and picked up at 8:15 p.m.
*Changing a student's registration from resident to commuter after May 19, 2022 (including during the week of camp) will result in a $50.00 moving fee.
