Band Camp is in less than two weeks - yay! Now's the time to make sure you're physically ready. Here are some things you can do:
- If you've been sitting around, get out and walk every day for 30 minutes
- If you've been somewhat active, run/walk every day for 30 minutes
- If you've been active, work running into your routine
- Make sure to eat a good balance of food, incorporating carbs, proteins, and healthy fats
- Phase out soda and "energy" drinks - go for water and the occasional Gatorade
- And make sure you and your equipment are good friends - your lips/hands/shoulders/legs/back will thank you!
Check out this kid...
Irving and McKee are making calendar plans, and we need some information about Spring Break week and the Disney trip. We realized our preferred weekend for the trip includes Easter Sunday. We need to know RIGHT AWAY if this would be a problem for you and cause you to not be able to participate in the Disney trip. Please click on the VolunteerSpot link below and respond if you CAN NOT particpate in the Disney trip in 2016 if we are gone over Easter weekend.

Want more information on the trip? Potential cost? What you would be doing? Where we stay? How we get there?
All of that information will be available at the Band Camp picnic Friday August 28. Yay!
We're going to the Tualatin Crawfish Festival, and we're introducing BurgerFest!
(Wait - what? What is BurgerFest??)
BurgerFest is our new fundraising endeavor, and it should be lots of fun. We're going to be selling hot and juicy burgers, including our famous Cajun Burger. The crowd will go wild for our burgers! And we need YOU to help out.
The Chuck Wagon will be open for business Saturday August 1 from 10am - 10pm, and Sunday August 2 from 10am to 5:30pm. For each 4 1/2 hour shift we need 3 students and 1-2 adults.

If you're in town, please sign up to help. We're really far behind in our fundraising this summer, and we need this to finance what we need to do this year. Let's do this!
