All Band Camp Sessions Are Mandatory!!

If anyone misses a session, it hurts the progress of the entire ensemble.  Please make every effort to be here for all scheduled times.  As with summer rehearsals, work is not an excuse for missing rehearsal.  In addition, please avoid scheduling appointments.

 

Band Camp Survival Guide - Be PREPARED for the Elements!

 You should have:

  1. Hat
  2. Sunglasses
  3. Sunscreen/Lip balm
  4. Socks
  5. Sneakers (running or cross training) NO  sandals, flip flops, high top basketball or skate board sneakers
  6. Wear cool comfortable clothing.  However, bathing suits are not permitted and guys must wear shirts.
  7. Beach Towel
  8. Most Importantly a Water Jug FILLED 

It should be noted that we will, at times, practice in less than perfect conditions.  Even though the weather men/women can be wrong 50% of the time, if they say there is a chance of rain… be prepared to practice in it.

Other Items you will need to have:

·        Instruments

·        3 ring binder

·        Plastic sleeves in your 3 ring binder, for your Music, Exercises, and Drill Charts

·        Dot Book.  This is an index card size wire bound book, which is on you at all times. You will write any important information in: Your individual drill dots, where you are in the music, who you guide to, interval step size, and anything else that may be happening in the drill. You may want to get a string/shoe lace that can be pulled through the spiral and knotted.  So it can hang around your waist or neck on days you do not have pockets.

·        Pencil

·        Lunch: Students are NOT permitted to leave school during this time.  It is YOUR responsibility to bring water, lunch, and snacks every day!

And last but certainly not least… eat a good breakfast (coffee and a donut does not count) before coming to school.  You will be working HARD in the heat, for long hours at a time!
