I have reviewed the information regarding the proposed trip to Carnegie Hall. With this deposit of $25 I support my child's participation and funding on the trip. I acknowledge there will be voluntary opportunities for fundraising, but ultimately the funding will be our responsibility.
I understand that my $25 deposit is non-refundable, but will be applied to my child's total cost for the trip if he/she decides to go. If in the event the trip is cancelled or my child does not pass the trip audition, the $25 deposit will be refunded in full.
