Please make sure you dress to keep cool, bring plenty of water jugs to refill, and sun screen, sun screen, sun screen. Camel packs are great as well. It is vital that all students are in attendance during these 2 weeks. Attendance issues can hinder your participation in the MB&G Band. Keep tabs on your body and make sure you stay healthy. Drink plenty of fluids starting now and eat plenty of hearty meals. Band Camp Café - Parents, we need help cooking and serving/selling food during the dinner hour each day of band camp this week and next week 4pm-5pm.

All students are required to attend and will sign up by seniority for a shift and location. The student sign-up is on the door in the locker room at the band hall. Students received the pledge sheet at the Thursday rehearsal. Follow the steps above to sign-up. This is a wonderful opportunity to fundraise towards your child\'s fair shares. All the information is on the sheet. Car Wash Help - Parents, we need your help with chaperoning the car wash. I have attached the instructions and responsibility sheets for parents.

Hello All,
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY! Welcome back! I hope everyone has enjoyed your summer break so far. We have missed all of you and we are looking forward to being back together over the next three weeks. Please look through the schedule below thoroughly as we begin the most important three weeks of marching band season. Percussion Camp - Percussion Camp resumes this week 7pm-9pm, Monday-Thursday. All percussion students must make plans to attend each day. Wind/Guard Rehearsals - We will have two rehearsals this week for Winds & Guard. All winds and guard must make plans to attend on Tuesday and Thursday, 6pm-9pm. Winds, we will be distributing show music and hopefully try and put everything together, including percussion and guard on these nights. UDB App - All students will need to download the UDB or Ultimate Drill Book App to whatever mobile device you will be using during band camp. This app is free and will be our primary source to set the marching drill during band camp and the rest of the season. You can see more information about this app by CLICKING HERE. We will go be going over how the app works at the Tuesday and Thursday rehearsals. ALL students will have to create a new profile within the app. This includes all returning students. MHSBPA Monthly Meeting - This Tuesday, the BPA will hold the July monthly meeting at 7pm. We will be moving this meeting to the Chorus room since the marching band will be in the band hall. This room is located on the back of the auditorium using the left door on the outside. Right across from the softball field. Room A-2. All parents are encouraged to attend. We will not by live-streaming this meeting. BAND CAMP - Band Camp is just one week away! Just a reminder that we will go 1pm-9pm Monday through Thursday for week one. Week 2 is 1pm-9pm Monday through Wednesday. On Thursday, July 22nd, we will have camp from 8am-Noon then the Preview Show will take place at 7pm in the MHS Stadium. All marching students MUST attend these camp days. Any student who is absent will risk their participation in the MHS Band this year. Band Carwash - We are planning to hold the Mass Band Carwash on Saturday, July 17th. So far we have three locations, however, we are working on 2 more. Students must participate in the wash. They will sign up by seniority for the shift and location they wish to be at. We will be giving out pledge sheets this week as part of the fundraising opportunity. Our goal is to wash as many cars that day as possible. After we are done, we total everything up and that number is what is used to collect the pledges. So, if a student gets a total of $1 in pledges and we wash $300 vehicles, that student just made $300 which will go directly to their band fair share account. More will be explained at the rehearsals and BPA meeting. Lock-in - This is just a reminder that we have moved the band lock-in/lock-out to Friday & Saturday, August 6th & 7th so far. That is all for now. I hope all of you have a wonderful week!

Students,
We have received the parts and audio to part 1 of our halftime show this year. You may download and look through whichever part you would like. There are three folders within the link below; "Magical Mystery Tour", "Brazil", and "Percussion for MMT and Brazil". We will post part lists at a later date so you will know exactly which part you will need to practice and memorize. Understand that for the sections that have split parts, we disperse parts randomly across the section. This is to ensure that the overall sound of the band is at its best. Click the link below to access these parts: CLICK HERE Students,
Just a reminder that we need to collect your T-Shirt size for this year's summer uniform order. This shirt is the same one from this past year with the panther claw marks on the front and our quote on the back. All students no matter if you received a shirt last year or not will need to submit a size. This shirt along with blue jeans/blue jean shorts will be our summer performance uniform for July and August performances until we go into full uniforms in September. Please click the following link and fill out the form by this Friday, June 18th. https://forms.gle/WPdndXefHCd3zrGA6 |
