Music/Drama Week

2010 - "The Good News Cruise"

Hey everyone! Are you ready for another year of Music/Drama Camp! Well, get ready because here it comes!

This year's musical is "The Good News Cruise" - yes, it's same musical as last year, but with a twist! This year the Music/Drama team will perform for congregations in Florida.

Because we'll be traveling to Florida, we'll be leaving a day earlier for our tour. So, we are strongly recommending that campers come to our pre-camp choreography sessions - especially if you have never attended Music/Drama before. Sessions will be at United Christian Church on July 11 and July 18 from 2 to 5 p.m.

Program attire will be a solid color (any color) t-shirt and khaki shorts, pants or capris (you choose!) All campers wil need tennis shoes for the program. We hope you already own these things and will not need to purchase anything additional. More details

Music & Drama T-shirst are required for the program this year which means every camper will need to either order one or use last year's t-shirt. Cost will be $15 or less. Please e-mail your size to Evelyn at musicdramadean@yahoo.com ASAP. If you feel that you cannot afford this, please let Evelyn know by e-mail at musicdramadean@yahoo.com.

Check-in begins at 2:30 p.m. with camp beginning at 4 p.m. on Saturday, July 24. You must check-in first, then go to your assigned cabins. We have fewer rehearsals than in previous years so it is important that you be there on time and ready to start at 4 p.m. If you know that you are going to be late, please let one of the deans know as soon as possible.

Very Important: We will leave our “camp” things at Gethsemane Church of Christ on Tuesday, July 27. Don’t forget to get pick up your "camp" things when we arrive back at Gethsemane on Sunday night, Aug. 1. Please put your name on your items so we can identify who it belongs to in case you leave it behind. Any items left behind will be donated to Goodwill unless identified.

Cabins will be assigned at registration on July 24. If you have a cabin request, please e-mail Evelyn at musicdramadean@yahoo.com or text Evelyn at 804-467-8241. We know you want to stay with your friends and we will do our best to accommodate your request; however, assignments are at the descretion of the deans.

The itinerary for tour will be posted as soon as it is confirmed. Check back often for updates.

Please remember to bring thank-you cards. We will be staying as guests in others' homes for two nights are you are expected to leave a thank-you note. Do not rely on others having thank-you cards - bring them!

Please bring the following to registration with you:

  1. Camp confirmation card received in the mail
  2. Any money you need to pay for camp.
  3. Canteen money - this will be cakp with you and not turned in during registration.
