Dear Parents, Guardians, and Students,
I am writing this letter as a reminder of the upcoming band camp at Axtell Community School. Camp is mandatory for all 7-12 grade band members. Band camp this year runs from July 31st- August 4th from 9:00 - 11:30 am. All students should meet in the band room at 9:00 sharp. We will have a lot to do and time will go fast.
Below is a list of items to bring to camp:
Water
Comfortable clothes (school appropriate)
A hat (if you want one)
Sunscreen
Sunglasses
Gym shoes (no sandals)
Instrument
A smile and great attitude
I chose the song Misirlou by Tim Waters as our parade marching song. Please listen to it on J.W. Pepper prior to Band Camp. I am very excited to meet every single one of you. I am ready to work hard and have a successful year as the new music teacher for Axtell Community Schools.
Important dates for parades:
September 23rd UNK Band Day
October 7th Harvest of Harmony
October 14th Minden Bandfest
Other important dates:
Meet and Greet at the North Park by the pool at 7:30 July 14th, drinks and snacks provided.
Band Parent Meeting 7:00 PM in the band room July 31st.
