Annual Volunteer Bond
To maintain affordable registration fees and ensure the smooth operation of our program, we rely on each family to volunteer throughout the calendar year (from October 1st to September 30th). Volunteer opportunities include working at casinos, helping with recital receptions, supporting end-of-year events, aiding with summer camp lunches, assisting with fundraising initiatives, serving on the Amici Board, and other possible tasks. Volunteer requests are communicated via email on a first-come, first-served basis.
The Amici Strings Program requires one $250 volunteer bond cheque from each family. Registration in the Amici Program assumes a commitment to fulfil volunteer requirements for the full calendar year (October 1st – September 30th).
A volunteer list will be maintained. Volunteer bond cheques will be destroyed after September 30th, 2025 to those fulfilling this requirement. Families that choose not to fulfill their volunteer commitment will have their cheques deposited as a non-volunteer buyout.
All families are encouraged to volunteer at various Amici-related events throughout the year.

Masking
Amici is a mask friendly environment. Regardless of any individual’s choice, all musicians will be treated with kindness and respect.

REGISTRATION DEADLINE: September 1st, 2024 payment required.
