WHO SHOULD ATTEND BAND CAMP? OFFICER & SECTION LEADER MEETING: Those who have been elected as officers or appointed as section leaders need to attend for discussion of camp, plans for the season, and review of basics. Only those who attend will be teachers for New Marchers Camp. 1ST HOUR PERCUSSION CAMP: All those who are planning on being members of the drum line or pit percussion need to attend. 5th Hour members will only attend the first four days. 1st Hour will continue through the 8th. Our drum line instructors and the drum majors will run this camp. Instrument assignments will be made during the first day of this camp if not before. Do not miss! NEW MARCHERS' CAMP: This is for anyone who will be marching with the group for the first time. Student leaders, under the direction of the FieldCaptain, will teach the basics of Souths marching style. Staff will run music rehearsals. New Marchers Camp will overlap Regular Marcher's Camp for two days so that the entire group can rehearse together and the pre- game show can be learned. Any new upper-classmen will be expected to continue through the 8th. 1ST HOUR BAND CAMP: All members that are 10, 11, or 12 graders need to attend. Rehearsals will focus on building individual skills and perfecting the new music. Basic marching skills will be reviewed. Our goal is to completely learn the Pre-Game show and get well into the contest show. FORMS, UNIFORMS, DUES, & SHOES Uniforms will be issued at Band Camp. In order to receive a uniform, each student must have the following: * Band Uniform Contract - Available online and in the Band Aid * Band Student Dues - $50 - payable to "SMS Band" * Band Booster Club Dues - $30 per family - payable to "SMS Band Boosters" * $25 Check for black marching shoes, if needed, made out to "SMS Band" Please use the "DUES & SHOES" Form from the back of the Band Aid, or print it from the Forms page, and paperclip your checks to it.

Work is not an excuse from any scheduled band practice or performance. School sports and activity conflicts will be worked out to the students benefit between Mr. Adams and your coach/sponsor. Very few activities interfere with camp. If you must miss any part of camp, inform Mr. Adams verbally, by email through this website, and with a parent-signed note (so Mr. Adams wont forget). If you have a trip or other major conflict, you will be aided by the Junior Drum Major and your section leader so that you can catch up on what you have missed. It is your responsibility to catch up. The group depends on the work of its individuals. WHAT SHOULD I BRING TO CAMP? Always have your music, small spiral notebook that becomes your drill book, pencil, and instrument. Wear comfortable clothes (no sandals on the marching field-wear tennis shoes. This is a requirement!) It will probably be hot! It is highly recommend that you bring a thermos of ice water, sun glasses, a cap, and sunscreen. When outside, we will take regular breaks for rest and water. Water is a much better choice than soft drinks or almost anything else. LUNCH, I NEED FOOD! During the lunch break, most members go to the many nearby fast food restaurants or home. Those of you who cant drive and dont want to go home for lunch will find upperclassmen and especially section leaders very helpful in the ride department. Use lunch as a time to create new friendships and renew old ones. Or, would you like to view and optionally restore one of these previous versions? Password: Forgot your password?
