Band Camp is just around the corner!
Here’s an update:
1) We need some parent volunteers to work during band camp. Several of you volunteered in May to help out, and someone from the executive committee will be contacting you shortly. If you would like to help out — pass out water, help with first aid, set up tents, or run campus errands during Band Camp– please contact Janet Alcorn.
2) We need to ensure the safety of the band students during band camp. PLEASE send 2 or more cases of bottled water to band camp. Bottled water can be bought at Wal-Mart, Sam’s Club or Costco for about $7.00 for two cases. Students must wear comfortable shoes for band camp and bring HEALTHY lunch and snack food.
3) Percussion and Guard Camp starts this coming Tuesday.
4) Rookie Camp — incoming Freshmen and other new band members must report to the High School on Thursday, July 31st at 9:30 a.m. Wear comfortable shoes.
5) Release forms must be turned in on the first day of band camp. We’ll have volunteers to help parents with forms on the first morning of band camp. Releases are mandatory or your student cannot participate.
6) We’ll have an “I Survived Band Camp” picnic (no charge) on the evening of the last Friday of Band Camp for members and their families.
7) The Band’s website has not been fully restored yet. In the meantime, you can access our “lite” website here: http://hirambandofgold.wordpress.com/ .
8) The Boosters will be accepting band fees during band camp. You can pay with debit or credit cards.
We also have PayPal here: http://hirambandofgold.wordpress.com/.
Stay tuned this week for more e-mails!
