Hello bandos, parents, and all the ships at sea!
Hopefully you have had a wonderful summer so far, I am delighted to report that we are still going to Eagle Village for marching band camp and most of the mask requirements are lifted. Masks are required on the bus! Unfortunately, we are all still living interesting lives, but the important thing to remember is IT IS GOING TO BE BETTER THAN LAST YEAR. I think for most people, it will be A LOT better.
We are going to be following our district policies for health and safety protocols. I think it would be a good idea for you to at least skim the two documents below: If you would like the "TL,DR" (Too long, didn't read), scroll to the bottom.
I want you to know that this is the best I've felt about things in nearly a year and a half. WE ARE GOING BACK TO THE LAND OF JOY AND MAGIC FOLKS... Little place called band camp. My wife is currently doing a camp at Eagle Village and she says the food is still top notch!
