Band Camp!
Full Band will start on Monday, July 25th at 9:00 AM as scheduled.
We will break for lunch from 12:00 to 1:30
Lunch will be provided at no charge if students wish to stay on campus during this time, also coke and snack machines are also accessible on campus during camp.
Band camp is always the beginning of a new and exciting time. Whether you are a senior or freshmen it is a new experience of some sort, and will be different from years past.
The first few days are always a bit hectic and confusing, so please relax and enjoy. We promise that you will find this to be a memorable and enjoyable experience filled with many new friends and adventures. It’s perfectly normal to feel a bit anxious and apprehensive if this is your first year, but after a couple of days everyone will feel
“at home” in the Hanna Band. All Students are also reminded to bring a water jug or camel back for water. There is ample access to water on the field for refills.

DCI Trip:
Saturday, July 30th (All Day Trip)
We will depart at 12:00 noon and return very late. (Approximately 2:00 am)
Remember money for the DCI trip will be due by Thursday of the first full week of camp. Cost is $40.00. $20.00 for the ticket and $20.00 for the bus costs.
Students will need money for food also.
Uniform Drive:
Our Uniform drive is now up to $19,000 in donations and pledges, which puts us at approximately 30% of our goal. Your help is needed in getting the word out to friends, family members and alumni. I’m absolutely convinced that we reach our goal very quickly if everyone helps to get the pledge cards out. We welcome your ideas, suggestions and help. We will are also planning to pass out pledge cards at the first football game and all upcoming events. A pledge card and uniform drive letter is attached to this email.
We Need:
Sodas and Snacks
We need every band family to donate a 12 pack of brand name soda and individually wrapped snacks such as Lance crackers, and individual packs of chips. These will be used at football games and contest to help students offset the high costs of concessions. These can be dropped off at the band room at any time during camp. We will be stockpiling these items all during the season.
New Tower!
The School district building committee has made a recommendation to the School Board that the current Band Practice Tower be replaced. Final approval on this should take place early next week. Pictured below is the proposed tower:
