Band Camp will happen even if there is bad weather.

THE WHO'S ITS AND WHAT'S ITS OF BAND CAMP

MANDATORY Band Camp starts the end of July. It is a lot of fun and a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with old friends and make new ones. Half of the time is spent learning drill (that’s marching formations for the newbe’s) and the other half is spent perfecting the music. You should already know your music when you come to camp.
