The Piscataway High School Orchestra will be going to Boston, Mass. from Apr. 22-25. While we hope your child will be able to attend, participation in this trip is on a volunteer basis.

We will be competing in the 2010 "Festivals of Music" competition with the Chamber Orchestra, Symphonic Orchestra, and String Ensemble. Some of the other highlights of the trip tentatively include:
The total cost of the trip will be approx. $725 for students and $500 for chaperones. Any adjustments to this figure will be made in the final payment. Below is a payment schedule, which must be adhered to due to our financial deadlines to the tour company. The commitment form must be handed in by the due date, with the first payment. Also included in this packet are payment coupons that must be completed and submitted with each payment. This includes withdrawals from student accounts. We will be bringing approx. 10 chaperones with us. Any parents interested in chaperoning will be accepted on a first come, first serve basis. We will accept your deposit at the same time as the students.
