ITEMS WE NEED FOR BAND CAMP!

In addition to the items that the directors will ask your students to bring to camp, please be sure to bring these items so we can help make the experience for your child even BETTER! If we all work together, we can make this the best year yet!

YOUR PHYSICAL FORMS!

Your student's physical form is DUE by the morning of the first day of summer band camp (July 17th for Percussion/Gems and July 26 for all other sections) or your student will not be able to participate. 

WE NEED WATER!

Please bring (at least) one case of water to your first day of band camp. This will help us keep our kids hydrated as they navigate the HOT Summer heat! Our fruit stand team will be serving these bottles of water and working to keep the kids in top shape!

BRING YOUR FRUIT AND SNACKS!

In order to stock our daily fruit and snack stand, each section will be responsible for bringing fruit or a snack each day.
Please see the information below for important fruit stand information from our Hospitality lead, Libby and to check the schedule to see which fruits and/or snacks your student will be bringing and when.
