Just a reminder to all MARCHING BAND students and parents. Band Camp begins Monday, July 6, 2026 at 8:00am. Please note the following details:
1. Hydration begins now. Don’t wait until next week to drink water. Begin in advance. We will be outside in the morning but it will be hot. Please feel free to bring your own water jug, thermos, etc. NOT soda, coffee, energy drinks, etc. Water or Gatorade will be available but there’s nothing like your own;
2. Wear appropriate clothing for being outside. Hoodies ARE NOT a year-round clothing. Also, dark colors have their place in concert attire, but not on the practice field. So, dress accordingly and appropriately;
3. Lunch is up to you with the following 2 choices: 1). Bring your own or have yours delivered at 12:15; 2). Eat what is provided by the band boosters or volunteers. Notably missing from the list is leaving to get something. Get it and bring it when you come in the morning. The quicker we can start afternoon rehearsals the quicker we will begin to leave earlier than the scheduled 4:00 finish time.
Finally, 4). You’re expected to be there, and stay there. Everyday. All day. By now, you should have contacted me if you are going to be absent. Absentees will be dealt with in a simple way: you simply won’t have a spot in the show.
I’m looking forward to seeing you all, working hard to get as much on as possible, and spending time with all my adopted children. Have a great weekend. See you Monday. - Greer
