Memorial Summer Camp Scholarships

I. This scholarship is established in memory of all Cypress Creek Music Teachers Association members who have passed away.

II. The scholarship recommends that CCMTA awards scholarship(s) annually to interested student(s) 12 or older towards the tuition for an out-of-town summer music camp – the amount to be determined based upon the cost of the tuition and as CCMTA’s budget allows. After the scholarship judge has chosen the student(s), the student(s) and their teacher(s) will decide upon the camp.

V. The scholarship cannot be awarded to the same student(s) for two consecutive years.
