The band has traditionally taken a trip every year until COVID cancelled everything. We would like to bring back the annual band trip next year. We typically stay within Texas and travel to San Antonio or Dallas. However, we go out-of-state every 3-4 years to give the students a grander travel experience at least once during their tenure in high school. After gathering feedback from parents and students, we have decided to take a trip to Orlando on January 13-17, 2023. This will be an OPTIONAL trip for all students. We feel that giving students the opportunity to travel with their band teammates makes their high school experience memorable and more meaningful.
The trip will include airfare from Houston to Orlando, full-time charter bus service, 4 nights of hotel accommodations, all meals, and admission to 4 theme parks. Students will have the opportunity to perform on a Disney soundtrack during a workshop setting on Imagination Campus.
The estimated cost, as of today, is $1500 per person. We will not know the final cost until airfare is purchased this summer, but this price assumes $500 for the flight. Everyone will have the option to make payments for the trip in installments. The balance must be paid off by November 1. Travel insurance is also available.
More detailed information will follow once school starts.
