Hello Marching Raiders, Friends and Families,
SUMMERTIME AND
THE LIVING IS EASILY..... so easy the Marching Camp has snuck up on
us and it's right around the corner! Hope you got lots of rest,
relaxation and fun in the last nearly two months because the work
starts Monday.
The 2007
Marching Raider Band Camp starts Monday, August 13th at 9:00
(remember Marching Band time - get there at 8:30 so all of your prep
is done and you are at attention at 9:00)
Come to band
camp prepared. That means -
Have a full
belly
- a
nutritious, filling breakfast - you will need it
Sunscreen
- in a bottle and applied to all of your exposed skin.
Plan to reapply at lunchtime.
Music (Fight
Song, Star Spangled Banner (Smith), Show Music)
A Baseball
Style Hat

going in one direction
Sneakers (or
marching shoes from last year) and socks
- NO FLIP
FLOPS
Dot Book

very small spiral notebook (around 4" x 5" or so) with a long
string running through the rings
Pencil
Lunch/snacks

label it
Water, water,
water, water

it enough "WATER"
Rain gear and
a change of clothes
- just in case
FORMS:
Data Sheet
(if you did not
turn it in at spring rehearsal - See Drum Majors if unsure) form is
attached to this e-mail. Due Monday
Medical
Form and copy of insurance card
- this is
a new form and an electronic copy is not available yet. We will
have copies available on Monday - please return it as soon as
possible. The front of the form does not require a physician's
signature If your child requires medication, the back of the form
addresses that issue and a medical practioner must sign this. If
there are any questions or concerns about this please contact me.
Please note no medications will be given (even tylenol)
without the signature of a medical practioner.
Money:
$10 for the
show shirt
- students
will receive this during the second week of Band Camp
$30 for
uniform rental
(does not
apply to guard)
$30 (or $60)
for marching shoes
- this year we
will use both white and black shoes Students with clean,
well-fitting white shoes do not need to order new white shoes but
will still need to order new black shoes. (does not apply to
guard)
$5 for gloves
When paying,
checks can be made out the the AHS Music Boosters. Please indicate
what the check is for (on the memo line) For example: Bryan
Righter - show shirt, uniform rental, shoes X2. If you are
sending cash PLEASE put it in an envelope with this information on
the envelop. We really want to credit the students properly but it
gets really hard with so many different fees.
Alright - we are
ready! Band Camp is a very exciting time for all the students, new
and old, but it can be sort of confusing as well. Please do not
hesitant to contact your section leaders if you have questions.
Warren and I are also available to answer any questions. We can be
reached at 301-604-9171 or swrighter@msn.com.
Good Luck, Work
Hard, Enjoy!
Sue and
Warren
