I know some of you are starting to plan your summer schedules. We are still very tentative (no school calendar out yet), so please pencil this in – it may change. Here’s what we’d like to do with Marching 100, as long as the school calendar works out:

• June-July – Tuesday evenings, 6-8:30pm
• Red Bud Fireman’s Parade – Sunday, June 30
• America’s Birthday Parade – Thursday, July 4
• Music Camp – TBA – mid July – 10am-2pm
• Band Camp – July 29 – August 8 – 8am-5pm. This is the tentative one, depending on when school starts. If we need to make a change, we’ll bump it back to July 22 – August 1.
• We’re just trying to get information out early – we’ll let you know once we can solidify it!

Winterguard Update:

• Tuesdays (ECC) & Thursdays (Lovejoy) – High School Rehearsal – 5:30-8:30pm
• Wednesdays (ECC) & Fridays (Lovejoy – Middle School Rehearsal – 3:45-6:30pm
