One Week! One Week! One Week!

Oh my goodness - Band Camp is only one week away! What do you need to know??

  • It's gonna be HOT HOT HOT! So YOU need to hydrate for days before we get there.
  • It will be sunny. Sunscreen is your friend.
  • Drink water.
  • A hat will protect your head.
  • Light colored loose fitting clothing will be helpful.
  • We wear shirts and shorts. We don't wear booty shorts. We don't wear jeans.
  • Drink water.
  • Good closed-toed shoes are a must. No boots, no flip flops.
  • Marching band is very physical. Between now and then, spend at least 20 minutes, three times per day involved in good physical activity.
  • Drink more water.
  • Your body needs fuel to do good work. Eat lean protein, healthy grains, good fruits and veggies. Soda and coffee are NOT your friends.
  • Make sure you are practicing your instrument EVERY DAY. 
  • Water is the elixir of all goodness. 

Here's a sample schedule:

  • 8 am * doors open
  • 8:30 - 9 * PT
  • 9:15 - 11:15 * Music
  • 11:15 - 11:45 *  1st Nutrition Break
  • 11:45 - 2:45 * Field Time
  • 2:45 - 3:15 * 2nd Nutrition Break
  • 3:15 - 4:30 * Sectional Time

Are YOU ready for August 15th??
