2019 Summer Camps

The percussion section holds several mini camps throughout the summer to learn new material and prepare for the upcoming season. These camps run from 9:00 a.m to 5:00 p.m. If you are unable to attend any of these camps, please contact us ASAP.

The band also holds a preseason camp the week before the fall semester begins. This gives band members an added bonus of moving in with ease before the hectic move-in day on campus. All members of the percussion section will move in for preseason on Saturday, August 17.
