Hello All,
BAND CAMP IS FINALLY HERE!!!! YAY!!! :-) The most important 2 weeks of marching season is here and I hope you are ready. It is VITAL that all marching band members are here everyday during for camp. If you are absent, you will forfeit your spot on the field and potentially in the band, unless for a valid reason. Remember to bring plenty of water and eat breakfast! Please bring a thermos with your name on it. We will not have time to take 20 minutes for every break for water, so the closer your water, the better. You can even carry it on you if you have the ability. The BPA will be providing items in the softball concession stand for lunch and dinner at a very cheap price so make sure you bring money every day as well. You are welcome to bring your own food. I encourage you to use the BPA instead of going out locally. Local restaurant prices can be expensive each day. The BPA is not trying to make money on this, They are simply trying to give our students an economical way for students to grab some food. Students, please bring plenty of sunscreen as well! Here is the schedule for Band Camp:
8am-Noon - Outside Marching
Noon-2pm - Lunch
2pm-5pm - Inside Music/Sectionals
5pm-6:30 - Dinner
6:30-9pm - Outside Marching
Parents, we are still in desperate need of help for band camp. Thank you for those that have already signed up! Now it's time for the rest of our parents to step up and support our students! If you want your child to use the BPA for lunch and dinner and keep costs down for you and keep them safe on campus so they don't have to cross any streets, then we need parents to work the concession stand for either or both meals. How better to show support for your own child, then to let them see that you're willing to give up just a couple of hours any given day to help feed them and the rest of the band. We also need help in our medical tent each day. You do not have to be a certified first responder for this. All you have to do is sit under the tent and look over those students who may be overheated or need bandages or ibuprofen. We will have the med kit and medical forms available for you at the tent. Again, let's show your support for our students! To help out, simply go to our calendar HERE and click on any of the yellow helping hand symbols under an event and sign-up then show up! Easy as pie! I look forward to seeing you there!
Students, our leadership team has come up with dress-up days for each day of camp. I encourage you to participate especially since there will be prizes per section for the amount of folks that participate. Here they are:
1st week:
Mon - tie dye, Tues - Tropical, Wed - Twin, Thurs - Holiday
2nd Week:
Mon - Villain, Tues - Decade, Wed - Schultz vs Weaver, Thurs - Section Day
For Decade Day - 90s-Freshmen, 70s-Sophomores, 80s-Juniors, 50s-Seniors
Next Friday after the preview show is freshmen day a MHS. Freshmen are encouraged to participate and can call the guidance department for more information. All marching sophomores, juniors, and seniors are required to participate in the pep rally for our freshmen at 10am that morning. We will wear a show shirt and blue jean shorts or pants.
Students, this is your final pre-band camp reminder to sign up for the UDBapp. This is how you will learn your marching drill this year. Please do not put this off! Here is the sign-up info:
That is all for now. Let's have a phenomenal Band Camp!!
