Ruth Russell Seiwell Memorial Scholarship
This Scholarship is an individual scholarship that has been donated and established in memory of our dear friend, Ruth Seiwell. Ruth was the Handbell Camp Director for many years and a devoted Board member of Choir Camp. Applicants can be anyone who is attending Choir Camp. You do not need to be a handbell ringer.
Novak Family Young Adult and Ambassador Scholarship Fund
This Fund was established for encouraging young adults to attend and to promote future camp attendance. (must be 18-30 and graduated from high school.) You are either applying for a scholarship or the ambassador program. If applying for the ambassador program you must also fill out the Ambassador Scholarship Application.
How can you support camp and the scholarship fund?
Scholarships are an excellent opportunity to help individuals who have a desire to experience the grace of Christ through music. There is always a need for persons to help defray the cost of Choir Camp. If you or your church are interested in sponsoring a scholarship to Texas Choir Camp, please contact the camp registrar – Catherine Bost via email at registrar2@texaschoircamp.org.
Our scholarships are also funded by the annual auction which is held Tuesday evening at camp. We welcome donations of new or like-new items or experiences. Perishable and consumable items are also a big hit. Our newest experiences have included dinner with the Dean and a musical serenade. On the first day of camp there will be a table at registration to receive your donations. With your help, we can continue our tradition to support campers for years to come.
