Band Camp is the first commitment of the season and we are currently still planning on the original date of Aug 3-7.  There are of course many things we don't know yet and what procedures we will follow to ensure safety and COVID-19 guidelines.  We know that things can change quickly during the pandemic and we will keep you informed of any changes.

Marching season, band camp and the concert season are now in the planning process.  It is extremely important to have an accurate count since drill design for the show will begin in the early summer.  Attendance and full participation in camp is expected from every band member since great effort, time and planning go into producing the show.  It is not right for a member to march a spot in the drill that was not at camp and already made the full effort.  It may become possible for an upperclassmen to march a shadow position if they are not accounted for with this form.  Band camp dates will always announced a full year in advance but it you see any problem in the dates please email Mr. VanStrien immediately.
 
Planning a show takes a lot of time and effort.  Drill and Music and customized specifically for the band.  In addition to the show design, camp staff are also hired at a great expense to make the best possible camp for the students.  Please return this form promptly and contact me with any questions.
