pencils
CAMP students go through pencils like nobody’s business! We can always use extra pencils for filling out worksheets and marking up music.
Price: $14 (Box of 150)
Whiteboard Markers
Everyone’s favorite teaching tool - whiteboard markers! They go dry (or missing!) faster than you would expect. CAMP teachers would be eternally grateful for an extra supply of whiteboard markers!
Price: $29 (50 pack)
mini white boards
Mini white boards are perfect for educational games and practicing reading and writing notation!
Price: $38 (30 pack)
black binders
Each CAMP student uses a black binder to hold their sheet music, lesson log, and yearly calendar. As CAMP continues to grow, we continue to need more and more binders.
Price: $42 (12 pack)
Printer Paper
CAMP prints out our own sheet music and classroom materials. We greatly appreciate any extra paper you can provide!
Price: $61 (2,500 sheets)
printer Toner
CAMP is lucky to have our own printer to print sheet music and programs. Now that we serve 75 students, we run out of ink much more frequently than before. We could definitely use some help purchasing toner!
Price: $68
zoom audio/video recorder
CAMP is in need of a video recorder with a high-quality microphone. This Zoom recorder would be perfect for preserving recordings of our performances and sharing them with students and families.
Price: $220
cello rack
CAMP currently has nowhere to store cellos. Our spare instruments remain in storage or are kept at Ms. Lindsay’s home! We are in need of a cello rack to safely store our large string instruments and transport them room to room.
Price: $962
concert bass drum
CAMP is currently using a vintage marching bass drum for performances. We are in need of a concert bass drum specifically made for classical music ensembles. This drum is suspended on a drum stand that allows it to get the proper resonance.
Price: $1,898
Bulk Folding Chairs
Since relocating to Beidler Elementary, CAMP no longer has access to folding chairs for performances. We need access to 250 chairs for our orchestra and audience as we continue to grow.
Price: $775 for 50 chairs
Qty Needed: 250 chairs
Tripod Whiteboard
Like many el sistema orchestra programs, we work in a building without a traditional rehearsal space. We use hallways, a library, and any empty space we can to practice! This means that sometimes we do not have access to a whiteboard. A tripod whiteboard would be very helpful for hallway rehearsals!
Price: $120
Qty Needed: 2
