A great week 1 is in the books! Nice job Charger Band. This week we will have camp through Friday with some events going on. We will have our music arranger come out to work with the winds and meet with the staff. Also, our COOKIE DOUGH fundraiser was just kicked off this week! This is a great way to fundraise for your fees and help the overall program!
Leadership and drumline will have a 9th grader prep day pep rally on Wednesday morning. Please have athletic shorts and your travel shirt from last year. Please see info below. We have Band Make Up registration on Thursday. Photos are taken for ID’s there so feel free to dress up for your photo. Afterwards, all will return to band camp attire (white shirt, athletic shorts and shoes, etc) after registration is completed. Lastly, wind players – glove payment of $15 is due on Friday. Please get that to the band box. The band party is happening at the end of the week and the Hype Day is Disney Character Day!
