marching band 2021-2022

BAND CAMP IS COMING UP!
JULY 19TH - 23RD, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.


Hello Band Family!

One of the best weeks of the year is almost here and we are back to almost normal! Yahoo! Please read on for some tips, things to remember, and pleas for help.

If your student has not been outside this summer getting used to physical activity in the heat, please encourage them to do so. Marching practice is a strenuous activity and it is so much more fun if the body is prepared! Mr. Sodders has been reminding the kids about this, but it would be great if they heard it from home as well.

Breakfast, sunscreen and hydration are critical to success at camp. Even if your student does not usually eat breakfast, it is important to do so during camp. Protein, carbs and hydration (water or sport drinks) are a marching student’s friend. Just as your car will not run without gas, those bodies won’t run without breakfast! We will have sunscreen for re-application at camp but please remind students to apply it at home before they leave. (We are always very grateful to accept sunscreen donations! Just have your student give it to any chaperone. Thanks!)

A delicious, wholesome, pre-packaged dinner is provided during camp, lunch is provided on a pre-order and prepaid basis. Due to COVID restrictions, we cannot provide any substitutions or alternate menus other than vegetarian options for dinner this year. Please be sure to order and pay for lunches by 6/30. Seniors - please DO NOT order/pay for Friday lunch - we have plans for you!

Please come lend a hand! Band camp requires a lot of help from band parents. We need chaperones, lunch and dinner servers, E-Team help building props, and photographers. Any volunteer must submit a consent for background check within the past 5 years as well as the FERPA form. Chaperone and photo team opportunities can be found and signed up for on CHARMS. If you are interested in E-Team, please email Jeremy at popeeteam@gmail.com.

Please be on time to pick up your band student after camp (and moving into the season with practices, games, etc.). Two chaperones will stay after events for 30 minutes after the event has ended. After that, we will leave unless you have texted or called (678-592-2625) to say that you have an emergency and would like us to stay with your child until you arrive.

Finally, keep an eye on your email and the BAND app. Sometimes we have last minute changes that need to be communicated. Stay in touch to stay in the know!

Thanks so much for your time! We are looking forward to seeing your student and you during Band Camp 2021!
