Final Day
On the final day of the summer camp August 31st, we will be hosting a pool party and cookout to celebrate the end of a fun-filled program. Parents are reminded to review the disclosures on the registration form and ensure that their children are appropriately dressed in their bathing suits on that day. The official location of the swimming pool will be announced at a later date but will be situated in Aberdeen.
In addition to the pool party, each child will receive a music certificate to commemorate their participation in the program. To mark the end of the program, we will also be holding a small ceremony and recital for parents, family, and friends to attend. It's an excellent opportunity for the children to showcase their newfound musical skills and for everyone to celebrate their achievements.
Food Plan
The children will receive snacks and juice throughout the day, in addition to lunch from 12 to 1 pm. At noon, some children will finish their lunch and leave by 12:30 pm, while others will arrive to have lunch in the second half of the camp. The food menu for the second half of the camp will be shared at a later date. Please refer to the disclosures on the registration form to provide any necessary information regarding allergies for safety purposes.
Now Free!
The pricing for our summer camp sale is $299 if you register before July 15th. After this date, the pricing goes up to the normal price of $399.
We understand that some campers may have prior commitments or vacation plans, so each registered camper will have the flexibility to select 10 days out of the 14-day schedule to attend camp. This ensures that every camper gets the most out of their time with us. For instance, if a camper is going on vacation for one week, those three days can be used as flex days. Alternatively, if a camper has prior engagements every Wednesday, they can attend camp every Thursday and Friday instead.
For an additional $100, campers can register for all 14 days and never miss a day of fun. This option guarantees that campers will have the opportunity to participate in all of our activities and make the most out of their summer camp experience.
One - on- One Training and Development
Every camper will receive personalized one-on-one training in keyboard, vocals, or drums. They will also have the opportunity to create their own karaoke track, which will be recorded in a professional music studio.
To ensure that each camper receives individual attention, they will be assigned a weekly time slot to work with our musician. This allows our instructors to tailor their teaching approach to the camper's skill level and provide focused guidance to help them improve.
