CAMPA Families,

What a wonderful series of Campbell music events over the past few weeks. Congratulations to everyone involved with The Addams Family musical and the Winter Concerts!

As you likely know, the music teachers and students have already turned their attention to new music in preparation for the events scheduled in the new year. Here's an update on what is coming next.

1. Music Tours

We're excited to provide students with the incomparable opportunity of music tours once again. The last tours were back in 2019, before any of our current students were even at Campbell.

• Senior (Grade 10-12) Music Tour - Banff, April 2-5:
  • details, payments, participation contract, permission form
  • Registration forms and down payments are past due. If your student would still like to sign up, do so ASAP so we can include them in our bus and hotel bookings!
• Junior (Grade 9) Music Tour - Brandon & Winnipeg, April 27-29:
  • details, payments, participation contract, permission form
  • Forms and down payments are due Fri, Jan 13. Sign-up ASAP to help us with planning.

2. Provincial and National Youth Bands

Students have recently received information on several special bands that are accepting applications until January.

• Mar. 3 & 4: Saskatchewan Youth Band – Intermediate more info
• Mar. 17 & 18: Saskatchewan Jazz Honour Band more info
• May 7 – 14: National Youth Band of Canada more info

3. Call for Support - We Need YOU!

Now that CAMPA is resuming more activities, we need more help!

1. Join our list of volunteers and help build connections within our Campbell music community.
   • Email admin@campa.ca or contact any CAMPA board members if you can help at events, with planning, or as a member of the CAMPA board of directors.
     Examples: Greet guests at concerts, support students backstage, help to refresh our corporate sponsorship packages, help to bring back our annual Swing into Spring fundraising event in June.
      
2. Replenish our funds for supporting Campbell music into the future.
   CAMPA provides funds for enrichment opportunities such as clinics, workshops, tour subsidies, and new equipment. The BINGOs that provided a big portion of our funds are no longer profitable, so we are in search of new funding.
   • Donate to CAMPA via our website. Charitable tax receipts will be provided.
   • Purchase a Corporate Sponsorship Package by contacting any CAMPA board members.
   • Suggest fundraising opportunities, grants we can pursue, and businesses that may be interested in corporate sponsorship packages.

 

All contributions are greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your generosity.

 

Best wishes for a musical holiday season,

 

CAMPA President
Dean Zurburg
