Summer Reimbursement Program

SUMMER MUSIC CAMP REIMBURSEMENT PROGRAM

The Rocky River Music Backers are excited to announce our summer music camp reimbursement program for current 5th to 11th graders! To be eligible to receive this reimbursement funding, you must (1) be a current participant in the Rocky River music program, and (2) be a participant in the Rocky River imusic program next year as a 6th through 12th grader. Your director will verify your participation eligibility.

There are many wonderful summer music program opportunities available for students in our area, and participating in one is an excellent way to expand your music education and bring what you’ve learned back to our music program. Camps range from $90-$300 for local camps, to over $2000 for sleep-away camps. The Music Backers will reimburse you $100-$200 per student, to help cover the cost of an instrumental music camp.

Please note: Once reimbursement program applications have closed, and we know how many student applicants there are, we will know the exact amount available per student. The reimbursement amount will not exceed the amount paid for the camp. For example, if your camp costs $90, we would reimburse you only $90. If your camp costs $500, we would reimburse $100-$200, depending on the number of applicants.

If you are interested in participating in the reimbursement program for participating in a summer music camp, please complete the online application form to the best of your ability by May 1st. If you do not know the exact amount of the camp, you can provide an estimate. Reimbursement program applications officially open April 1st. You will be notified of your reimbursement award amount by June 1st. After you attend the summer music camp, you must complete a final scholarship survey, providing feedback about the camp, and providing proof of payment and participation. Reimbursement will be made after receipt of the final program survey in the Fall.
