Trips

Each year, the orchestra takes a trip to have a musical and educational experience. Our 2023-2024 Trip is to Washington, DC. Students who are interested can sign up by clicking the "Sign-Up" button. 

(Trip code: DEEWDC2024)

If there is a performance component to the trip, all students who go on the trip will perform on the trip. Please try to make every effort to participate in concerts and festivals at which their group is performing.

If there are not enough participants in the trip, it may be subject to cancellation. We understand that trips can be expensive, so we will do our best to provide fundraising opportunities to help offset this cost.

DPISD policy: All funding for trips will be provided through:

• Fund-raising and individual payments by students
• Revenue generated from concerts/performances
• Booster club donations

Once committed to a trip, the orchestra becomes responsible for certain costs and it will not be possible to give a full refund. In the event that a student does need to cancel a trip, we will make every effort to refund the fullest amount possible to the student at that date. Students who have committed to their participation at a festival cannot expect to be refunded already expended funds paid on their behalf. The trip balance must be paid in full by the due date or student risks forfeiture of the trip to another student willing to complete the balance.
