A Few More Marching Band Details..........

The time is almost here!  Marching band camp 2019!!!  Check the August 7th blog post for other camp details if you don't find what you're looking for here.

Check-in help needed:  If you can arrive at check-in at 6:45 a.m. and help with check-in, please let me know by emailing allegoel@howellschools.com  We need 4 people to check in students, distribute info packets and answer questions.

Check-in procedure:
  • Check-in begins on Sunday at 7 a.m.
  • Go to the band room and check in with our volunteers (parents or students or both may check in). 
  • Grab a marching band information packet and sign up for our band email list, if you'd like
  • Turn in any medications to Nurse Baker - medication must be in the original container and in a Ziploc bag with student's name
  • Take luggage to bus loading area
  • Get ready to have a great time!
Students are bussed to AND from band camp.  You will drop them off and pick up at the high school.  Return time on Thursday is approximately 3:30 p.m.

Evening activity schedule:
Students have fun activities every evening after practice - here is a tentative schedule
  • Sunday - Camp fire and smores
  • Monday - Game and movie night (Games and school approved movie provided. Feel free to bring your own cards or games - as long as it fits in your luggage and is school appropriate!)
  • Tuesday - Talent show (performing is optional - all acts must be pre-approved at camp by Mr. Smigell)
  • Wednesday - Dance (Some students dress casual and some get dressed up - i.e. dresses, rompers, collared shirts/polo shirts, etc. As long as it meets school dress code, whatever you are comfortable in is great!)
