Marching camp is held to get a head start on marching fundamentals, pre-game and half-time show prep, and for the band members to become familiar with each other in a band of about 225 members. It is imperative that all members are present every day of camp! When just one student is missing, it creates an empty spot on the field and becomes difficult for other students to learn movements, not to mention the missing student will be forced to catch up. Each student will be taught over 20 moves on the field and learn more than 10 songs in just 7 to 9 days of camp!
If a student is unable to attend camp for any reason, then it is requested that a parent e-mail Mr. Stahly (cstahly@usd345.com) as soon as possible so other practice arrangements can be made for the band during the student’s absence. Yes, it’s that important.
Instrument, music and marching folder. If the student’s instrument is one that is rented from the school, please make arrangements with Mr. Dease to get the instrument during the summer, or to exchange the SMS instrument at the beginning of camp. It will be very warm weather, so please wear appropriate clothing, bring a water bottle, and wear tennis shoes!
Each student will be provided his/her own marching folder before the end of the current school year and should begin working on playing the music. It is important to get the cobwebs out and to be able to play most of the music prior to the first day of camp. Please note that it is expected that students will have all music memorized for the first football game. Don’t worry about memorization over the summer, just be sure to practice!
