Come to the BACDS English Dance Week in Mendocino, California, 
from July 9-16, 2005


Registration

The registration fee for the dance week is $695. The fee includes room, board, and tuition. A deposit of $75 per camper is due with each application, with final payment due by June 13. You are encouraged to pay the full fee in advance.

To avoid problems associated with slow mail, all applications postmarked by April 18 will be deemed to have arrived on that date. If English Dance Week is oversubscribed, a drawing will be held. Applications postmarked after April 18 will be considered in order of receipt. There will be no discrimination based on gender. Notification of acceptance or waiting list status will be mailed during the week of May 2-9.

Please note that there is a cancellation fee: if the registrar receives notice by June 13, $50 of your deposit is nonrefundable. After June 13, $75 is nonrefundable. The entire fee may be retained in the event of cancellation without sufficient notice.

The smooth operation of camp depends on the efforts of work scholarship campers! Work scholarships (covering up to 1/3 of the fee) are available to all and will be considered upon request. Scholarship requests must be accompanied by the $75 deposit.

Only full-time registrants, generally 18 or over, can be accepted. Teenage applicants, if accompanied by an adult, will be considered. For the health of all camp participants, we strongly encourage the use of nontoxic and fragrance-free products at camp. Complete information will be included in the acceptance packet.

For your convenience, if you don't have access to our printed brochure, we offer a registration form that you can fill out online and print out, to be mailed along with your check. (We don't offer direct registration online at this time.)

You may also download PDF files of the English Week brochure. The first page includes the staff listing and tentative schedule; the second page contains our pricing, registration policies, and the registration form.


BACDS offers one other dance week this summer: American Dance and Music Week, July 2-9, at the Mendocino Woodlands (see their website, http://www.bacds.org/camps/amweek2005).
