Just a reminder to keep working on your music. Do not put it away and not look at it until Sunday night at camp.
When you are packing be sure to pack plenty of socks! The ground is often wet in the morning and you do not want to wear nasty stinky socks all day long. Be sure to bring 2 or 3 pairs of shoes for the same reason. You may NOT go barefoot!!!
Also please remember that the percussion section CANNOT drink pop during the day! You may see the rest of the band drinking pop at meals, but that is there problem. You will also see that many people in the band will end up sitting out part of rehearsals because they are sick.
Make sure that you do not forget your music!!
Band camp can be a lot of fun, but it is also a lot of hard work. Please show up to each rehearsal with a good positive attitude. Be willing to work hard and not complain. When we are setting drill I move very fast and I expect to have your full attention the entire time. I will not put up with people being lost and confused as to what we are doing because they failed to pay attention to what is going on. I am more than willing to help everyone as long as everyone is doing what they are supposed to be doing.
If you have any questions please contact me before Sunday at noon!!
Get some rest and be ready for a great week!
