Why do we have Camp Fees?

The band receives minimal financial support from the school district to underwrite the program. We are essentially self-funded; therefore, Camp fees must be assessed so that all of the band’s financial obligations can be met.

​

Band classes and their corresponding performing ensembles have expenses which average $25,000 or more per year.  These include sheet music, guest instructors, travel and registration fees for competitions, instrument repairs and replacement, and other expenses that are not paid for by the school district. To help cover these costs, band families are expected to assist by paying their Camp fees.

​

Camp Fees are a necessary part of our band’s success. Our goal is to make sure students have a high quality, meaningful experience in a properly-funded ensemble without placing a large burden on families.

​

Our Camp Fees are minimal compared to most high school band programs. Our Camp fee is $200 per student. This Camp fee is payable by check, cash, or credit card**.  Camp Fees are due by the last day of band camp unless notice of when you can pay is provided to the Boosters.

​

Any band family in need of payment assistance should fill out a Daniel Spradlin Sponsorship Application. Applications for Fall season are due by end of day Friday, July 22nd for consideration. Sponsorships will be awarded the following week.
