Dear Band Families,

Just a couple of reminders and a letter from our new band director.

1. Is your student physically ready for band camp? We are running twice a week at 7:00 am Tuesdays at the Dam and Saturdays at the high School track. Just a little work each week will help make two weeks in July a breeze.

2. Thursday night music rehearsals begin on July 7 in the band room at the high School. Remember to run your scales to keep those skills sharp.

3. Needs for band camp beginning on July 25th, Water thermos at least 1 quart size, tennis shoes, hat, sun screen, and a student that is ready for physical activity outside in the heat of July.

4. Does your student know their music?

5. Garage Sale is Saturday July 30th at 8:00 am, remember to save some stuff to donate to the band for us to sell. If you have items to sell at your own table this is an 80/20 fundraiser, 80 % goes to your students account and 20% to the general fund. We will begin accepting donations of items to the band on July 1st.

6. Cobb fundraiser will begin on July 27th.

7. If you have not turned in your paperwork for next season we need it before band camp, please mail it in to PO Box 595 Irmo SC 29063. The forms at on the web site and can be filled in and then printed and mailed. We need these for the safety of your student during camp.
