AboutBand Camp will take place in the weeks leading up to the start of the academic school year and will be located at Gretna High School. All students in the marching band are required to attend. During these summer rehearsals, we will focus on learning marching technique, guard work and music that will be important for the duration of the marching band season. A large portion of band camp will be dedicated to learning the music and drill for the field show. Music will be given out at the end of the previous school year or mailed out as soon as it is available.
All students will need water bottles, sunscreen, and APPROPRIATE sneakers for marching. Make sure the shoes have good support and are in good repair. Consider a hat and sunglasses to protect them from the sun. They need to be prepared for all types of weather. If it rains, we get wet! Although these rehearsals take place outside of the academic school year, students must comply with all rules and regulations present in the Gretna Band Program Handbook and GMS/GHS Handbook. Students will be under the supervision of the director and parent volunteers throughout these weeks. Any behavior in violation of the Code of Conduct will be referred to the proper administration. Any serious issues will require not only consultation with school administration, but may also result in the student being sent home from band camp and possible removal from the marching band. |
