Treats, Shoes, and more!

CFHS Band Parents, this post is just for you.

I wanted to update you on a few details as we near the start of our 35th band camp!

POST-REHEARSAL TREATS: In the past we have had awesome and generous parents (or groups of parents!) who have brought treats for the students at the end of rehearsal. The students are always appreciative and it is a great way to wrap-up a long hard day of music and marching. To help keep things organized as to who is bringing what and when, Kristin Renneke has put together a Google Doc that you can add your name to if you are interested! If you'd rather, you are more than welcome to just email me with your date of choice as well.

BLACK SHOES: Last season we purchased a pair of black marching shoes for nearly every student who requested one. Because the wear and tear these shoes go through is different for every student we have decided to not purchase another bulk order of shoes this year. This leaves you a with a few different options:​

1. You can purchase a pair of black marching shoes for yourself. We recommend these!
2. You can get a generic pair of all-black shoes - tennis shoes, dress shoes, whatever. They MUST be all black.
3. I have a small stock of new shoes in limited sizes. If you let me know what you are looking for I can check if we have it already!

WHAT TO BRING TO REHEARSAL: A quick, handy list of things your student will want to bring with them every day to band camp!

1. Weather appropriate clothing
2. Tennis shoes/sneakers, comfortable for athletic activity
3. Sun screen
4. Water - big water bottle. NO SPORTS DRINKS! NO ENERGY DRINKS!
5. Instrument
6. Dot book *students will get this on Day 1*
7. Music packet *students will get this on Day 1*

Any questions, as always - ask!
