Band Camp 2021

August 2-5 and August 9-12, 2021

FAQ At A Glance:

  • Camp runs from 8:00-5:30 each day. Breakfast begins at 7:45 and we will start each morning in the cafeteria.

  • We will not be marching all day, every day - but we will march some everyday. During the first week, we focus primarily on Music (Color Guard focuses on work) and during the second week our primary focus is on drill. More time is spent marching the second week than the first week (we like to "ease in to it").

  • Lunch is also provided each day, however if you are a "picky" eater or a "big" eater, I would encourage you to pack extra lunch for yourself.

  • We usually do a "fruit break" in the mid-afternoon to help us push through until the end.

  • Please remember that EVERY person is important! You are all on Varsity and play "first string" when it comes to Band!

  • We will have copies of your music printed out for you. Please, please listen to the show and be familiar with your part. We will get you all set up in SmartMusic ASAP and that will help greatly!

  • DON'T PANIC! You 100% CAN do this! We all have had about 14+ months of time away from "normal" band (like anything we do is "normal" LOL). You'll catch on - you'll be great!

  • Most everyone I have taught in the last 27 years really, really enjoys marching band as long as the stick with it. When it gets tough, when it's hot, when you're frustrated, just "keep on truckin'"!
