DHS Band | Trip Info

Here you will find all important information pertaining to our spring trip. If any changes are made to our trip details after information as been passed out they will be posted here as well as announced in class. Please look at the payment schedule and be sure to have your payments in on time. Thank you.

The high school band will be traveling to Orlando, FL this year. Preliminary details can be found below.

PACKAGE DETAILS
The estimated cost for each student is $740.00
Students must travel as a group on the bus. Please understand that once you sign the Commitment Form, barring a serious family emergency, you are required to pay the associated fees and go on the trip. The only exception would be if a student becomes ineligible, he/she will not be allowed to attend. In that case all money paid is non-refundable. Any remaining balance will still be due.

It will be important that we are very serious about fundraising and/or making the payments. Of course, no one is required to participate in fundraising. Many students may choose to simply pay the cost of the trip. For those students, a payment schedule will be set up to allow them to make monthly payments.

For many, though, fundraising will be a necessity. We found this year that many students were able to fundraise for a majority of each monthly payment, which left them less to have to pay out of their pocket.

To make it as easy as possible for the students to pay for their trip, the total cost has been divided into 8 payments. The amounts are based on a total trip cost of $740.00 per student. Once again if this amount fluctuates, you will be notified ASAP. Each payment will be due on the dates listed below:

August 14: $100.00
September 15: $100.00
October 15: $100.00
November 16: $100.00
December 15: $100.00
January 15: $50.00

Sponsors costs will be broken down into similar payments with the exception of room (hotel) costs. The rooms at the hotel are all suites and will have the following: one king bedroom, one bedroom with two queen size beds, living room with a pull-out sofa and large TV, dining room and full size kitchen.
