Food and Housing

Food
All camp participants will receive daily lunches (Thursday-Sunday lunch) as part of their registration.

Campus Food and Housing Package includes:

Food: Thursday lunch through Sunday lunch. (Sunday dinner will be part of the Young Musicians' SummerFestival beginning on February 15, 2008)

If you are wondering if you will be hungry and craving some home-cooked meals, don't worry-BYU has fabulous dining halls where all camp members will enjoy buffet-style meals with breakfast, lunch, and dinner provided.

Housing: Thursday night through Sunday morning.

Checkout is the following Saturday morning (June 21) by 9:00 a.m. (you will be able to store your luggage at the Central Building until after the SummerFestival concerts).

You may decide to stay in the residence halls during your camp experience. You can request a roommate with whom you are already great friends, or you can choose to roll solo and make a lot of new friends. The choice is yours.

There will be a camp counselor there for you and your new friends. You will have a wonderful time getting to know your counselor and will come to love and look up to them. The camp counselors are BYU students involved in the BYU School of Music, so you can feel free to ask any one of them about their college experience. These camp counselors will also be a great friend to you if the week gets tough. Past camp members have often referred to their camp counselors as life coaches.

There will be separate residence hall buildings provided for girls and boys. The opposite sex will never be allowed in your bedrooms, but you can have your new guy friends or girl friends hang out in the residence hall lobbies. You also need to be doing the camp activities during the day rather than wasting your time away in the residence halls. Slackers usually are not our most beloved and favored ... so beware.

To make your camp experience pleasant for you and everyone else, make sure you bring enough clean cloths, shampoo, soap, deodorant, and any other toiletries necessary to look and smell your very best. There is no towel exchange during the Honors Jazz Camp, so if you have a big thing for fresh clean towels, bring extra.
