Band Camp - Week 1
Monday, July 25, we begin full band camp. All members should report from 8 AM – 1 PM, Monday – Friday. This week will include fundamentals, but we will start almost immediately with music and drill for our halftime/competition show. With early performances on this year’s calendar, we must take advantage of this time now!
While the forecast for the week is not as extreme as this past weekend, it is vital that members stay healthy by having sun protection and drinking lots of water (not soda). We will certainly be monitoring our exposure and time in the heat, but camp will continue as normal. Please come prepared to work in sometimes hot conditions!
We also need medical forms for all members on file. You can get a hard copy from the band room or find an electronic copy here.
Be sure to check out pages on the website for more information:
