Step 3

The band directors are excited to meet your child in Summer Band!  There are no fees for Summer Band, but you must obtain your own instrument and all necessary accessories (Step 2).

We start band in the summer because we can start each unique instrument in a separate class that is taught by one of our six BCSC band directors.  For example, since everyone in the clarinet class is learning clarinet, the students don't have to wait for the teacher to spend equal time helping the flutes, saxophones, trumpets, trombones, and percussion!  By attending Summer Band Camp, when school begins in the fall in mixed-instrument classes, students have enough knowledge to begin playing as a full band.

• Summer Band Camp meets each weekday from Tuesday, May 26 to Friday, June 5.

• Location: Columbus East High School (See map below)

• Session 1: 9am to 10am: Flute, oboe, clarinet, saxophone, percussion

• Session 2: 10am to 11am: Trumpet, French horn, trombone, euphonium, percussion

     (Percussion meets from 9am to 11am)

On the first day, arrive about 15-minutes early for your class -parents can walk their student into the school and meet the director.

If you are purchasing the "Starter Pack" and renting your instrument from Paige's Music, everything your child needs will be in the appropriate classroom on their first day of class.  If you are not using Paige's Music for your instrument or accessories, please take time to review the appropriate page in Step 2 so that your child has everything required for a smooth start to band -we get only one chance to give your child a great first impression of playing in band!
