Marching Knights

Band camp is two weeks of both physical and mental hard work! If you have kids taking part in organized sports, the mindset is the same: discipline, commitment, and effort are of utmost importance. Attendance at practices and performances is mandatory. Having every team member at all practices and performances, is what makes us successful!

Students are working toward putting together a marching show of 3-4 songs that have

• beautiful music

• precise marching

• stunning visuals

• a ton of energy!

We take this show to multiple competitions during the fall to showcase our talent, hard work, and tenacity. The goal is to do well and bring home awards that our students have earned!

We perform our show during halftime at home football games, too!

Band camp occurs before school starts during the height of summer. It's hot! 🥵  Students should dress appropriately:

• shorts

• t-shirt or tank top

• hat

• socks

• tennis shoes -- kids are marching or doing choreography on asphalt. Tennis shoes are the only appropriate footwear. 

Band camp occurs before school starts during the height of summer. It's hot! 🥵  Students should bring the following items:

• water bottle -- there will be water stations to refill

• sunblock -- kids are in the sun for several hours a day. It is important for them to be protected from UV rays. 

• salty snacks -- during breaks students should eat healthy, salty snacks.

  • • trail mix

    • granola bars

• other snacks -- fruits are a good source of healthy sugars and nutrients  

Students will have the opportunity to purchase lunch during band camp. We typically order from

• Chick-fil-a 

• Kroger

• Marcos

• Others, too!

Notes:

• Purchased meals do not always have vegan or vegetarian options.

• Purchased meals do not have flexibility of adding more food. 

Students should ensure that they are eating enough food and drinking enough water during lunch so that they can stay healthy and continue to work hard for the remainder of the day.

If students are purchasing lunch, they may want to consider adding any of the following:

• fruit

• salty snacks

• foods with protein

• granola bars or trail mix
