Thank you to our students, staff, and fabulous parent volunteers for making the past two weeks of band camp a tremendous success for our program! The band made great strides and we look forward to a fun and successful fall season! We continue with mini-camp rehearsals this week as we add to our show and prepare for upcoming performances to kick off the 2022-2023 school year!
 
Mini-Camps
Tuesday & Thursday, August 9 and 11 from 5-9 PM, and Saturday, August 13 from 7 am to Noon. Rehearsal location details and other information will be shared via the Band App prior to the start of rehearsal. As always, our attendance expectations apply to all rehearsals and performances.
