What is the Parent Meeting?At the Parent Meeting, the Director and Stage Manager of your student's camp will have the opportunity to introduce themselves to you and describe a little bit about what you and your camper can expect from camp. This will include details about the planned production, the activities they have planned, and ways they will communicate information and practice resources to you and your camper. This is also a good opportunity to sign up for a Parent Volunteer role, as well as get any of your questions answered.
