Band Camp II will begin on Saturday, August 8th from 9am to 9pm and then on Monday, August 10th - 14th from 9am to 9pm.- First Parents Meeting will be held Friday, August 14th, at 6:30 p.m. following the family night dinner and ending with a sneak preview of the 2009 GHS Hurricane Marching Band show!
- Drill will be available Wednesday for the show and pregame.
From the Band Director: Please be on time for all band camp sessions. Band members should wear a white or mostly white t-shirt, black shorts, socks (these are required and students won't be allowed to march without them), athletic shoes and their instrument, if applicable.
Since they'll be outside for a good part of the day, they should also bring a large thermos of water, sunscreen, a cap or visor and bug spray. Bring a lunch each day but avoid including candies or anything that can melt or spoil easily. No milk or dairy since it could upset their stomachs in the heat.
Donations of snack crackers, granola bars, bananas, apples and powdered Gatorade are needed for Band Camp II. The kids can really work up an appetite when practicing their new show and they really love those granola bars! You can drop off your donations at the GHS Band Room beginning in August but check back here before you do that to make sure someone will be there to receive.
Don't forget about the camp fees and medical forms. Link to GHS Hurricane website http://gainesvillehighschoolband.com/, for printable PDF's of calendar, Band Camp II information and medical forms.
