Parent Preview Night at Band Camp 2016
We are excited to announce a percussion techniques clinic for the 2017 marching band season! It will be held on Saturday, April 29th. This will be a clinic to teach students how to play anything from mallet instruments to marching percussion. We will go over the in-depth fundamentals of how to perform on each instrument by learning warm-ups and fun exercises. The clinic is open to any junior high or high school student who is interested in learning new instruments or further develop their existing understanding of their instruments. This will also help level the playing field for students wishing to audition for the percussion section in the high school marching band. There will be a $15 registration fee for the clinic. Anyone can come, but students planning to be in the percussion section next year are required to attend.
Please view the attached itinerary for more information and register online here.
