"Don't be afraid if things seem difficult in the beginning. That's only the initial impression. The important thing is not to retreat; you have to master yourself." --Olga Korbut

What to expect at Band Camp

I know when I was a freshman (and then again as a parent of a freshman), I wondered what was going to happen at band camp. It can be an exciting, yet somewhat apprehensive time. Our band strives to be the best that it can be so expect to work hard while at camp, but you can also expect to have a lot of fun. Over the next 2 weeks, you will be spending 10 days, 12 hours a day (that's 120 hours!) with the band. You will learn new music, how to march, and you will get to know the band members and directors very well. If you have questions or comments, this is a great place to leave them. See you all tomorrow!!
