Thanks to all who are able to help out next week!
We only need sliced chicken, cooked w/a fajita spice packet now.
In addition to a peanut allergy, there is also a shrimp allergy. Fish sauce is used in a lot of things.
If we could check our labels when donating, that'd be great!

Band Camp is HERE!
Hey all!
Tomorrow kicks off the first day of Pre Band Camp! If you are a Squad Leader or Drum Major - your report time tomorrow ( Aug 15th ) for SQUAD LEADER DAY is 8:00 am opening. Rehearsal begins at 8:30- Don't be late!
Friday is NEWBIE DAY ( Aug 16th ) for all incoming freshmen and new members of the marching band. Mr Smigell will be answering any question you may have at 8:00 am. Rehearsal starts at 8:30.
We should be done by 2pm on both days, although if we work hard, we could be done earlier.
Remember to wear tennis shoes (no sandals!) and bring your instrument and a water bottle. We WILL be outside - so wear sunscreen and clothes for the weather. Sunglasses are fine.
For EVERYONE: On Sunday, August 18 - Please report at 7:30am SHARP. We will check in, turn medication into the nurse if needed, and load up! We want to make it on the road ASAP to be able to unpack before our lunch time. You do NOT want to be the person that makes the band late to lunch.
The weather seems to be cooler than past years - but like always, Michigan weather is unpredictable. Make sure you are prepared for cooler than average weather in the evening. Highs are supposed to be in the 80's, lows in the 50's. Please look to the Band Camp Packing List for help and guidelines - and remember to follow school rules while packing.
Drumline / Pit : As Kim Zepp has mentioned - your report time is 7:15am to help load your instruments.

* I am helping Mr. Smigell at Band Camp as a technician and will be working with the band this season as a drill writer/ editor. I am excited to be able to meet you all (if I haven't met you yet) at Band Camp and can't wait for what awaits this season.

LONG TIME NO SEE! Squad leader lists and the promise of more info:
Hello everyone! So sorry for the long delay of info, but here is the squad leader list. Individuals on this list are slated to be squad leader candidates through band camp. One of the requirements is that they attend both the SQUAD LEADER DAY (Aug 15, 8:30am-2:00pm) and the NEWBIE DAY (Aug 16th, 8:30am-2:00PM). Of course, nothing is perfect. If you think you have been left off this list in error, please contact me at jsmigell@mac.com
This list is hand typed (did you ever think there would be a term like that?), so sorry for spelling and punctuation issues
