Band Camp Info!

We will be mostly outside, so be prepared for the weather each day. 

• Lunch will have to be brought with you every day (except for August 15th). Students are not permitted to leave to get lunch. Dinners will be provided by the Band Boosters on late days.

• Bring a hat and sunscreen. If you get sunburned on the first day then every day after will be miserable.

• We will be learning the full show so make sure you are prepared! Bring: a binder, a pencil, and have your show music memorized.

• Eat a good breakfast every morning. I know some don't usually eat breakfast or eat a minimal breakfast but it's important when you are in the sun all day, burning calories, that you have proper fuel in your body. Everytime a person doesn't feel well at band camp, it's because they forget to eat breakfast. Avoid sugary food and caffeine. Please take this seriously.

• Hydration is extremely important. See the note below.

Temperatures have been at a record high this summer and will likely continue. It's important to make hydration a priority. Three days before band camp (August 10th) begin drinking at least a gallon of water a day. We will give you plenty of water breaks during band camp but the most important hydration takes place before band camp begins. Avoid caffeinated, sugary drinks such as soda because they will dehydrate you.
