We do not live in the Rehoboth Beach area. Can our son or daughter find accomodations with another family?
I have been able to find accomodations for out of town residents with local camper families in the past, but I can not guarantee it. Contact me to discuss this before you register, and I will try to set you up with a family.
My child has never played guitar before. Can they sign up as a guitarist to learn during the camp?
All campers should have a rudimentary familiarity with their instrument, whatever it happens to be (see home page). They don't have to be prodigies or even average. If they sign up as an instrumentalist and can't play at all, they will not have a positive experience. Drummers will be given a chance to play the drum set even if their only experience is playing snare in the school band. Make sure that your childs instrument is in decent working order before the camp starts. Vocalists are welcome. We are flexible and there is no audition. If you are not sure, Contact me before you register for the camp.
I read (or heard) about your camp in the media. You must get a lot of applications, so how do you decide who to take?
I notify the previous years campers first to give them first opprotunity to sign up. Then I open registration to every one on the mailing list. It is first come first serve. Anyone who applies after the camp limit is reached will have their deposit returned to them.
