ENTHUSIASM!!

I have suggested to the students that they bring a small cooler of ice and water each day. They should also bring a small water bottle that they can carry on the field with them. During the breaks they can refill their bottle from their cooler. Students will not have time to go back and forth to the school.

Here is a detailed schedule for pre-camp.

9:00-12:00 Fundamentals…Death Valley (Students should report straight to the field Monday morning.)

12:00-1:00 Lunch…middle school

1:00-3:30 Sectionals…these are closed rehearsals

3:30-5:00 Full band rehearsal…in front of middle school

5:00-6:00 Squads…Death Valley

On Friday of pre-Camp week we will have a squad competition. Parents are invited to watch the fun! This will begin at 5:00.

On Friday of Camp week we will have a Parent Dinner & Performance. This will begin at 5:00.
