What should I bring? Comfortable clothes with cool and warm options (hoodie recommended), performance clothes, solos for practice and/or lessons, spending money.
What do we wear for concerts? For the opera or musical theatre scenes you will perform in at 10:00 Saturday, nice clothes. For the combined band and festival chorus concert you will perform in at 1:30 on Saturday: nice white top with black pants or skirt. You may choose to wear the same thing for both; in that case, it must be a white top and black bottoms.
How much spending money should I bring? This will vary from student to student. The college bookstore is open daily for toiletries, snacks, and Fredonia t-shirts and sweatshirts. There are snack machines in the dorms. The camp discourages students from bringing large amounts of money, and recommends somewhere in the neighborhood of $30-50 for the week.
How old must I be to attend? Students who will be enrolled in grades 8 through 12 in the fall, or have recently graduated from high school.
What about health care while attending? Participants will be taken to nearby WellNow or Brooks Memorial Hospital in Dunkirk if the need arises. Please bring your health insurance card, and supply a copy with your registration.
What about housing at the Festival? Students will be housed in a campus residence hall, with resident counselors. Each double occupancy dorm room contains two standard size twin beds, two dressers, two desks, a large mirror and closet. Bed linens, pillows and towels are provided. The residence hall has a recreation room, kitchenette, and vending machines for snacks. Please indicate on the Application Form if you wish to share your room with a specific roommate, as last minute requests cannot be honored.
What concerts will I hear? Fredonia Faculty will perform in recitals on Monday and Tuesday. Band small ensembles perform Friday, and piano campers perform Saturday at 9:00.
