Band Camp starts tomorrow, and we can’t wait to get started!  

Schedule

  • August 1-5

Here are a few last things to help Monday morning go smoothly.

Plan on meeting on our practice field behind the band room where you will check in at the check-in table.

  • Your section will be holding a sign directing you where to go
  • In the event of rain, we will start in the auditorium.   Your section will still have a sign on where to go

Items to bring with you:

  • Sunblock
  • Water Bottles (Water Bootles must be kept outside during rehearsals) – Please make sure your name is on it.
  • Sunglasses (optional)
  • Hat (optional)
  • Tennis Shoes (no sandals).  This is essential for good marching!
  • Instrument and Lyre
  • Pencil (Highlighters optional)
  • A great attitude that is ready to dive in and work together
  • Hawaiian Day Theme is Monday!

 

Highlights from Last Week!

The Leadership Team had two great days of training last week and is looking forward to showing you their ideas!

The Drumline had a fantastic pre-camp and is already playing our first three tunes!
