The band hall is closed this week except for Thursday. Thursday is Freshmen Orientation. 

Thursday's schedule is as follows:

Freshmen do not have to perform with the band unless they want to.
12:30 p.m. - Rehearsal begins in the band hall. 
(Please go over Neck, The Hey Song, Land of 1000 Dances, and 7 Nation Army)

1:20 p.m. - Move to the gym and set up for pep rally.

Students should wear black shorts, plain white t-shirts, and tennis shoes.

Following the pep rally, the band hall will be open while work is done to reorganize the instrument and uniform lockers. If you'd like to help, please do!

All of this information is available on our band calendar here. 

Band Camp Week #2!

What a great first week of band camp! All of those new faces and the return of our vets have been great! The group has come together very quickly, and it looks like it is going to be a great year!

It's been a hectic week for us. We will continue working on the show and all of the music. We have also invited all of the middle school band students in the area to come to our band hall for a week-long summer music camp. We are looking for student volunteers to help work with students on various musical activities. Please let us know if you would like to help. 

On Wednesday, a local photographer will come to take our large group picture as well as all of our sectional pictures. We have to do this early in the morning because it heats up so quickly and we don't want the students to be in full uniform too long. Because it will be such a long day, we will release at 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday.

On Thursday, a different company will come in to shoot our band portraits for the large composite picture that hangs in the band hall. This will happen indoors and will take place throughout the day. Thursday is also the day that we will order band polos for students and parents. Polo shirts are $20 each and may be purchased with card, checks, and money orders. Please make checks/MO's payable to NHSBPA.

Friday is our last day of band camp and our preview show and family cookout. We will start serving food at 6:00 p.m. and the band will march in at 6:50 p.m. The show will begin at 7:00 p.m. You may RSVP for dinner here. 
Working this event is also a great way to get a feel of what an evening in concessions is all about. You may sign up to volunteer to help feed everyone here. 

We look forward to seeing you there!!!
