Marching Band Camp makes up the majority of the preparation time during any marching season. During Band Camp, students learn how to march, how to "set drill", and memorize show music. It can be an intense two weeks of rehearsal. These pre-season summer marching band rehearsals are extremely important. That being said, please let the Band Director know if your child can’t attend a portion of the pre-season rehearsals. Pre-season rehearsals usually begin in the middle of August and last for two weeks. Please review the calendar for dates and times.
