Good evening band families!
We hope everyone is enjoying their summer! We want to thank everyone who has purchased needed items off the band Amazon Wish List…thank you, thank you, thank you! We have a good start on items needed for our chaperone bags and for snacks. If you would like to help us out with the list, click here: Amazon Wish List
Band camp is two weeks away! Starting Monday July 28 – August 1, the students will have band camp from 8am – 5pm, they will have an hour lunch break. We would like to provide them with a morning fruit break and an afternoon popsicle break, if you are able to help, please sign up here: Fruit & Popsicle sign up
The second week of band camp will be from Monday August 4th – Thursday August 7th. Times are going to be 3pm – 6pm on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Thursday is scheduled for 12pm – 3pm. Lastly, Friday is 3pm-6pm with the Show N’ Tell at 6pm.This will be a chance for the students to show off what they have been working so hard on all summer, plus we have a band parent meeting to give more information about the season. We also host a hot dog dinner (hot dog, band of chips, bottle of water, and cookies for $5). We will send out a sign up sheet when we get closer to that date.
Band camp is EXTREMELY important for your student to attend. Please ensure that your student is there and ready for rehearsal each day. If your student is unable to attend, please inform Mr. Dailey or have them contact their section leader. The students will be learning drill for the show during these rehearsals and will be behind if they miss.
Senior Parents – We are hoping to have a photographer come out during band camp to take pictures for senior banners. We are working on the details, however, once we have the information, we will send it out immediately. The banners were $75 last year, we are expecting a similar price. These are not mandatory, but they are nice to hang at football games to show support to our senior members.
