Good evening band families,

Band Camp

Tomorrow band camp begins! Please encourage your student to get a good night’s rest! Also, remind them to pack a water bottle, sunscreen, a hat, athletic shoes, sunglasses, their instrument and music. It is going to be hot this week. We have found cooling towels can be helpful on these hot days.

Update from BAND: Sun July 26, 2026 2:22pm

Horizon Band Families,

We are excited to begin band camp this week! A few important reminders and updates before we get started. Please make sure to read all the way through!

Band Camp Schedule This Week
-Tomorrow (Monday): 8:00 AM–12:00 PM
Due to the school being closed, we will have a half day tomorrow. Students will need to use the field house restrooms during the morning.
-Tuesday–Friday: 8:00 AM–5:00 PM
We should have access to the building again, and these will be our full band camp days.

With the hot weather coming this week, please help your student prepare:
-Start hydrating tonight and continue drinking plenty of water throughout the week.
-Bring a full water jug/bottle every day.
-Apply sunscreen before arriving and bring it for reapplication.
-Hats are highly encouraged.
-Students are welcome to bring personal shade (such as canopies) if they would like a place to cool off during breaks. Make sure to have weights so they don't blow away!

We will be outside a lot this week, so being prepared for the heat will make a big difference!

NEW Drill Apps for 2026

This season we are switching to the new UDBpro powered by ARC system for drill. Ultimate Drill Book, Beam, and Geo are all new apps, and the logins/apps used last year will not work. Students will need to redownload the apps and go through a central ARC account setup.

Please follow the setup instructions here:
https://help.udbapp.us/kb/guide/en/udbapp-setup-for-members-0DyYFXU0Yg/Steps/4967671

Our group information is below:

UDBpro (Ultimate Drill Book)
Subject Code: 6GAA6
Member Group: K2VC9

Beam
Subject Code: 6GAA6
Group Code: QRYXK

Geo
Subject Code: 6GAA6
Group Code: VLQVG

The Beam library from last year has been migrated and will still be accessible through the new app. Geo will help us with attendance and other important information throughout the season.

Please try to download the apps and complete the setup before tomorrow morning so we can spend less time troubleshooting and more time learning drill. At the latest, everything needs to be set up by Tuesday.

We are looking forward to an amazing week of camp and a great start to our season!

Go Hawks! (I also attached a video of what we'll be learning this week, movement 2 coming soon!)

Hello all!

I wanted to send out a quick update in regards to band camp:

We will not have access to the building on Monday, July 27th so we will be moving to a half day from 8am-12pm. We will be outside on the parking lot for that duration and can use the restrooms at the field house for the day.

July 28th we will resume full 8am-5pm days for the rest of the week, and will have access to the auditorium and lobby once again.

Thanks for your flexibility, and I’m so excited for camp! Drill is being written as we speak and I can’t wait to get learning the show!

Also, congratulation to our soloists for movement 1 and 2!

Movement 1: Joseph Leishman, Josh Bezjak
Movement 2: Grady Goodman, Kai Wolcott

Thank you to all who auditioned!

Update from BAND: Tue June 30, 2026 5:18pm

The Palisade Peaches fundraiser kicks off today! Here is the important information to get started!

Link: https://mesaparkfruit.com/horizon

Peaches are $45 per box, and for each box sold the band makes $15 ($10.50 from each box goes into the student’s band account, and the BPA keeps the other $4.50). Orders are open NOW and close August 12. Peaches will be delivered to Horizon on August 15, where each student will be expected to pick up all of their orders and deliver from there (individual customers are not expected to pick up from HHS on 8/15). Time for pickup has not been determined and will be communicated in a few weeks.

The students were given flyers today with a QR code that takes you to the link above. This is Horizon’s direct order link, where all pre-orders for peaches are done. Customers will be prompted to enter the name of the STUDENT whom they are supporting (this is how we will know whose accounts to credit for what sales).

If you have questions, please reach out to me here, or email me at hhsbpafundraising@gmail.com.

Weekly Update June 28th

Good evening band families,

Just a quick reminder that the students have mini band camp this Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday from 9am-4pm. Please make sure that your student gets a good night’s sleep and has breakfast in the morning. They will need to bring a water bottle, hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, their instrument and music. They will have a one hour lunch break, so have them pack a lunch if they are unable to leave to get lunch.

We would like to provide a fruit break in the morning and a popsicle break in the afternoon on each of the three days. We are in need of parents to volunteer to bring fruit and popsicles. We have a few spots left open, if you are able, please sign up here:

Fruit & Popsicle Break Sign Up

The first band fee payment is due on Wednesday July 1st. You should have received your CutTime sign in link through text. If you are an android user, it may end up in your text spam, so if you did not receive it, please check there. Remember, this is your magic link to your student’s account. You will need to keep this link for the year. 

You can also make a payment via Zeffy:

Zeffy Band Fee Payment Link

Ashly will be at the school on Wednesday at 9am and 4pm if you would like to pay by cash or check since your student will not have access to the band room where the locked payment box is.

If you have a senior this year, we will be offering the senior banners again this year. They will be $70 and pictures will be taken on Thursday August 6th at 5pm. The students do not have band rehearsal that night, it is back to school night. If you would like to purchase a senior banner, please make sure that your student can be at the school that night. I will be sending out a sign up for this soon, but wanted to get it on your radar now so you can plan accordingly.

Please reach out if you have any questions!

Hey Hawks! I can't wait to see you all tomorrow for the start of our mini camp!

Remember, we'll be going from 9:00 am- 4:00 pm Monday-Wednesday. Because of the construction at HHS, we'll be outside most of the day. We only have access to the auditorium and auditorium lobby. Please bring lots of water, sunscreen, hats, and appropriate athletic attire and shoes.

Lunch once again is on your own. You can take a break from the sun eating in the auditorium lobby, but you must clean up after yourselves.

We have a lot of work and growing to do these three days, and I'm so excited to dive into new topics and music!

Don't forget that final commitment is due by Wednesday where we will finalize our drill numbers and get your spots for the show that we'll start learning starting on July 27th!

See you tomorrow, and start hydrating TODAY to be ready for the week!

Hey Hawks!

Final reminder that tomorrow is our car wash fundraiser! If you're planning on coming, please fill out the student volunteer form for the car wash: (If you forget, you can still show up and get credit for helping at the wash!) https://forms.gle/Wco6y4TD937mfA2k8

Don't forget sunscreen, water, a snack if you'll need one, dress appropriately, and be ready to work to get those cars squeaky clean!

Great job to those of you who have fundraised (some close to ALL of their band fees!!) with the calendar campaign. If you collected cash/checks/etc. you can turn that in tomorrow as well. Remember, you can still get started and have this campaign run for the rest of the summer, there just won't be a car wash associated with the donations.
