From Mr. Kalish:
If you are planning on being in the band next year, this e-mail applies to you.
Many parents have been asking about band camp dates next year. Now that we have the school calendar for the 2016-2017 school year, we have been able to set our dates. Please remember that participation in pre-school year activities are a prerequisite to participate in marching band. If you have any concerns about these dates and your child’s participation, please contact me as soon as possible.
Next week we will be distributing the Band Camp Packet. This includes all schedules for the year, important information about camp, permission slips and forms for participation, and the answers to all your questions regarding band. We will discuss these packets in class and please make sure, students, they get home to your parents! (Eaglet’s you will receive these from your coaches.)
Here are the following dates for Summer Band Camp Activities for your calenders (we are still locking down times, so please keep these days free for now):
