Mark your calendars! This year’s two-week band camp runs:
- Week 1: Monday, July 29 to Friday, August 2th, from 8 am – 12 pm.
- Week 2: Monday, August 5 to Friday, August 9, from 8 am – 5 pm; August 9 only, 6:30pm – 8:30pm. Lunch break from 12pm – 1pm daily (lunch is provided by Music Boosters).
Band Camp is for all students who will be participating in Marching Band & Color Guard in the upcoming school year. Attendance at both weeks of Band Camp is required. Students are taught the basics of marching, and the Band and Color Guard begin to learn the field show that will be performed at home football games and in competitions during the fall season.
Students should arrive prepared for hot weather. The following are required daily at Band Camp, starting from the first day:
- Instrument
- Hat with at least a bill (EVERYONE wears a hat)
- Sunscreen
- 1 gallon water bottle
- ATHLETIC shoes with a flexible sole (e.g., no flip-flops, no boots)
- lightweight t-shirt
- shorts or athletic pants (no jeans)
- pencil
- positive attitude & a desire to strive for excellence!

Parent volunteers are needed to help with setup and serving of lunches to the students from 11:30 to 1:00. Donations of fruit are also needed. Please sign up to help!
