CAMP FAQ's

Concert Time on Sunday at Athens High School: 4pm. Following the concert & cleanup, students are dismissed to go home. 
Students will get a round trip bus ride provided by the school district. 
I have been getting a lot of questions about camp - a lot of them being similar, so it was decided that I should send out one more email to clarify a few items:​
  1. I regularly take medication. Do I take it with me or give it to a chaperone? Please keep it with you. We trust that you understand your dosage and needs for the medication. This also includes ibuprofen, acetaminophen (etc.), if your child takes it regularly. Our first aid kit is for emergencies only. Please have your own medicine with you, do not give it to the chaperones. 
  2. Do the cabins have air conditioning? YES. All rehearsals spaces and cabins have air conditioning.
  3. I have food allergies, can I bring my own snacks? Michindoh's policy is to not have snacks in the cabins because of critters and insects. However, there will be no "check" or "disposal" of snacks by our chaperones. Please make sure to voice your allergies to the kitchen staff. We are also purchasing snacks for the students, and we are trying our best to keep them as allergy-friendly as possible. Many students with allergies/food sensitivities end up bringing their own snacks. Please keep them sealed in a bag or container. 
  4. I see that I cannot wear a 2-piece bathing suit, but I don't own a 1 piece. Can I still swim? Yes. But you need to wear a dark-colored shirt over your suit if you wear a 2 piece bathing suit. Men need to wear full length (traditional) swim trunks. 
  5. Will I get to choose my cabin? We will ask all sophomores and freshmen to pair off with someone they want to share a cabin with. Then we will assign those pairs to the cabins. This ensures that you still bunk with a friend, but will have ample opportunity to get to know the other students in the orchestras and make new friends.
