2019 Early Summer Newsletter(will be updated in late July)

5/22/2019

 
Here is everything you need to know. The housing information will be updated in very late July.  Botton line--when you come to campus bring all your stuff for the semester.  Percussion and Guard ask your section leaders how housing works during the first couple of days.

2019 Daily Camp Schedule-(1st draft) SUBJECT TO CHANGE

Someone asked a great question today...... "To my understanding, color guard and percussion will come to camp starting August 10th along with moving in on the same day. Will we stay there until school school starts on the 20th?"... Once you arrive at camp...you will be busy until school starts.
