6th Grade Carowinds info.

CAROWINDS MUSIC FESTIVAL FRIDAY MAY 15th 2020

Parents,


The Festival of Music held at Carowinds is a way to bring together students and adjudicators in a positive learning environment that will inspire the students to strive not only for excellence, but to make music a lifelong activity. Students will be judged on their performance. After the performance students will spend the remainder of the day in the park. Our 6th grade students have been working really hard this year. I am extremely proud of all our band students. Please remember this is an optional performance. Students are not obligated to attend since there will be a fee to attend the festival.  

The cost to attend the event is $70. Please make sure your payment is turned in by April 3rd 2020. Your payment includes a one-day park pass to Carowinds and the music in the park festival fee. You are welcome to make payments before the deadline. IF YOU DO NOT PAY BY APRIL 3rd STUDENTS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE CAROWINDS FESTIVAL. Again, this is an optional performance for our students. Please make all checks payable to Clover Middle School.

If you have a season pass the total cost to attend is $40. Reminder all payments must be received by April 3rd2020 to attend. 

The Carowinds music festival selects our performance time. Once the time of our performance is confirmed an itinerary will be handed out. Please plan on having your child dress for the weather. We will be going to this event rain or shine. Our performance could be at a local high school or in the park. Again, once times for our performance are confirmed more information will be handed out. Last year we performed at South Pointe High School in Rock Hill SC and then went to the park. 

If you are interested in chaperoning the event please email Mr. Gibson. We will need to have about 10-15 chaperones. All chaperones will have to be cleared through Clover School District. If you are interested in chaperoning you would need to pay for your park admission only. Chaperones will pay $40.  

I am really excited for this great opportunity for our 6th grade band students. If you have any questions or concerns please email or call. Thank you for your continuing support of the Clover Middle School Band Program.
