Mini Band Camp! June 1, 2024

We are one week away from Mini Band Camp!

Next Saturday, June 1, 2024 From 9 -12, all students entering Freshmen, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior year are expected to be at the High School to kick off the 2024 Season. This week, the current students were given their music and have begun to play through the Puppet Master in anticipation of having all incoming musicians join. Color Guard has already begun rehearsing. Student Leadership has been chosen. We are well underway!

While the students are practing music, marching, flags, and more, parents of all ages and experience levels are expected to gather at 9am in the auditorium. This mandatory meeting will welcome in new families while also discussing and revisiting important topics such as schedules, costs, responsibilities, volunteer opportunities, ad book changes, and more. After this meeting, there will be a time of refreshments, meeting new people, asking questions, and stocking up on merch.

While I can not give exact timing of the meeting, I would plan at least an hour, and allow time to mingle with new families who will surely have questions and can benefit from a friendly face to welcome them in.

We are getting a lot of new kids this year and are really trying to make this mini band camp a welcoming experience for kids and their families alike. Please take a minute to click both links below and if you can help, fill out the information to support the Band Backers.
