So I'm getting ready to purchase plane tickets and decided to just check with my son's high school about Summer expectations for band. My son just started and wants to do marching band. Well marching band camp is right in the middle of our Disney trip. We are scheduled to go from 08/16-08/24. He needs to go to that camp if he wishes to march. I'm so upset. I thought about leaving him home and still going and then do a long weekend for just the two of us in October but that is more money than I can afford. So the next alternative is to go mid July. I can't imagine planning Disney in such a short period. Also, currently we are doing a split stay with Poly and BC for a great deal and I won't be able to get that deal in July so we will have to stay value since moderates are sold out during our dates. We have never stayed value. What should I do? I'm so torn and I can't imagine Disney without our son.
