How do we receive the festival music to practice?
The music is available on this website at the Music Fest Music Page. You can gain access to it by entering a password, which we have emailed to teachers. You are more than welcome to make just enough temporary copies for the number of students you have. When you arrive to the Festival, each participant will receive a folder with all of the original music. After your last rehearsal before attending the Festival, you are strongly encouraged to destroy all copies you made. After the final concert on Saturday night, all original music must then be returned back to the Campion Academy Music Dept. In order to protect copyright laws, please do not make excess copies of this music or give the password out to parents or other individuals. We will promptly take down the files in the music resource page at the beginning of the Festival.
Please contact us for a password to the Music Resource Page:

What is the desired performance attire during the Festival?
CHURCH SERVICE
- Your school's performance attire. If it is not a uniform, please wear a modest black & white formal outfit.
- Festival T-Shirt & Jeans
What if a student has food allergies?
If a student has allergies or other dietary needs, there will be a place in the registration form to indicate that information. The cafeteria staff at Campion Academy are very experienced in this area of food service and are willing and able to accommodate most, if not all, of these issues. When the student first goes through line, have yourself or another sponsor go through line with him or her, so that the cafeteria staff can put a face to the dietary need or food allergy entered on the registration forms.
Can parents and family eat in the cafeteria when they come on Sabbath for the performances?
Anyone is welcome to eat in the cafeteria. There will be a basket for donations near the door. If possible, please let the cafeteria staff know which meals and how many people for each meal your party is planning: portia.kluchesky@campion.net.
I will not be leaving until Sunday morning: Am I able to eat breakfast at the cafeteria?
We will provide a sack breakfast for each student or sponsor that indicates their need for one. Please include this information in your registration.
What lodging accommodations are available?
Female students and their sponsors will be staying in the gymnasium at HMS Richards Adventist School. It is located just across the parking lot from the Campion Academy gym. They will shower in the Campion Academy gym, as the HMS gym does not have showers.
Male students and their sponsors will be staying in the Campion Academy Student Center, located in the basement of Hankins Hall. If any overcrowding were to occur, the Campion Academy Chapel (a floor directly above) will be made available to use as well. Some of the shower and bathroom facilities in the Campion Academy Men's Dormitory will be available for use throughout the Festival.
Please plan to bring your own bedding (mat, sleeping bag, pillow, etc.).
If there are any sponsors and/or students that have special needs, there are four guest rooms available in the Campion Academy Women's Dormitory. These rooms are available on a first-come-first-serve basis and can be reserved using the information below:
