Work Trade

If you want some financial assistance for camp, consider applying for a work trade. 

Work-trade positions are available for campers 13 or older who are willing to help with camp setup, perform a daily chore, assist with special events during camp, and stay for two hours on the last day for camp teardown. In exchange, work-traders receive a discount of $250 for adults and $200 for teens. 

Specialized work-trade arrangements may also be available with the approval of camp management. Contact the registrar (familyweek@bacds.org) for details.


Jude Biggs Scholarship

The Bay Area Country Dance Society offers the Jude Biggs Scholarship to aspiring dance musicians so they can improve their skills playing for community dance. A typical Jude Biggs recipient has considerable mastery of an instrument and has shown at least an interest in playing for dances, but is not yet at the skill level of professional staff. As a Jude Biggs recipient, you’ll have opportunities to work with our superb musical staff and play for dancers in several different types of community dance.

This scholarship covers the full registration fee. It sometimes may be split between two campers, in which case it would cover half the fee, with the potential to reduce the cost further by other scholarships.

To Apply

Contact Family Week management (familyweek@bacds.org) to apply or for more information. Be prepared to explain why you’re a good candidate for this scholarship. Applications are due by May 1, 2023.
