Reminders/responsibilities for Camp.

• Please remember to have all the required materials for camp- see your summer letter or email Mr. Harvison with any questions.

• All music (including warm-ups) needs to be ready to play by camp.

• UPDATED-FINAL PART 3 & 4 is in the Dropbox folder as well as all percussion music! Please download and print this updated music.  Percussionists: please make sure you have all of the new music with you at camp. There are also updated recordings for your reference! Check those out and get excited about your show! Email a director if you need a link to the Dropbox.

• PLEASE EVERYONE start getting outside and getting acclimated to the temperature and humidity outside. There are several wide-brim hats on the market and even some that feature a water-cooled fabric to keep you cool. I highly recommend getting these to help you stay cool and productive during rehearsals.
