A huge THANK YOU to Lisa Brown with Inner Banks Real Estate for treating The Blue Machine to delicious ice cream truck treats as we wrapped up our second week of band camp! 🍦💙🖤
After countless hours of rehearsals in the summer heat, those sweet treats were the perfect way to cool off and put smiles on the faces of our hardworking band members and staff.
Your generosity and support of our students mean more than you know. Thank you for investing in these amazing young musicians and helping make band camp even more memorable!
If you are around CCHS at 5:30 stop by and let these awesome kids show you what they have been up to these past two weeks!

A huge THANK YOU to the amazing team at Taco Bell on North Road Street in Elizabeth City for generously providing lunch for The Blue Machine at band camp today!

Our band members and staff were beyond excited, and the food disappeared so fast that we barely had time to snap pictures before it was all gone! That’s what happens when you put delicious Taco Bell in front of a group of hungry teenagers after a morning of hard work.

Thank you for supporting our students and investing in Camden Bands. Your generosity helped keep our members and staff fueled. We truly appreciate you!
