​Pictures are on Thursday morning! We will go over uniforms and go to the gym to take the photo.

Fish camp is Friday! We will be playing at that, and 9th graders are allowed to go to this.
Flight school are staggered throughout the week. If you are an early flight school, try to go at 7:30 to make it on time for 8am practice. If you are a late flight school, go to flight school after camp is over.
IT WILL BE HOT. BRING WATER JUGS!! If you ordered one on the first round of TMF purchases, they are in the band hall and will be distributed to the kiddos on Monday. Stay hydrated! We will take LOTS of water breaks.

YOUR SUMMER BAND SUPPLIES CHECKLIST:
Pencil: We'd like for all band students to have a supply of pencils. We use them a lot in band, as we make lots of music notes to get you best prepared for the marching show. 
​Your Summer Band Music (if you have it)
Sunglasses: depending on when we are outside, the sun can get in your eyes. We recommend all students bring sunglasses to protect your eyes from the sun.
Sunscreen: sunburns are no fun! Use sunblock regularly while we are outside to protect your skin from the sun.
Athletic shoes: Tennis shoes are our highest recommendation. Toms, Chucks, Vans, will cause your feet to be sore. SANDALS can cause real injury. 
Athletic shorts: if a child goes to outdoor rehearsal with jeans or leggings, they will more than likely overheat and could get sick. This is a safety requirement.
Hat or hair ties: keeps more sun or long hair out of your eyes and helps with comfort and makes the rehearsal more enjoyable.

Towel: you can use the towel to place your instrument down when we are on the practice field. Also helps for sweating during outdoor exercises.
Water jug: students will be required to purchase the TMF water jug from the website. But you MUST HAVE WATER for outside hydration! Dehydration, no no no!
Pencil: ...ohh, sorry, I already said that. But bring a pencil.
Instrument: so you can you know.... play music.
​Pencil: oooop, there it is again.... You got your pencil, right?
PHYSICALS
UIL and Humble ISD require all band students enrolled in the marching band to obtain a physical before participating in any marching band activities.
This is a non-negotiable. If you do not have a physical with us by Monday, you will not be allowed to participate.
Go to the link above and look for Physicals and Rankone to learn more info!
