Director’s Notes!
Hello Band Families!
It’s Band Camp Week! We’re looking forward to officially starting our marching band season! Be sure to wear good marching shoes (closed toed, no crocs), pack extra sunscreen, bug spray, bring a large reusable water bottle, and be prepared to be outside for a majority of the day.
There is a meeting on Friday for all parents and guardians to learn about the program and ways to get involved! After that, we invite all friends and family to come to our preview performance in the stadium. You will get to see all the incredible work the marching band has been doing throughout the week!
Lockers will be available for use starting this week. If you plan on using your locker, you must bring a lock. If you are renting an instrument from the school, it is not allowed to be in a locker without a lock.
You can find the summer schedule here. Be sure to read the information at the top of the page! You can also find the full tentative season schedule here. Please note that dates and times are subject to change. Any changes in the schedule will be communicated via eblast as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me!
One Band, One Family!
