Bluejay Band Members and Family,
Greetings Band Family!!! I hope to find that each of you has had an amazing summer of fun, relaxation and a time to reset for another year. Percussion and Guard camp starts this week and we can’t wait to see the full band next week!
Below will be all the information you need to know for band camp. Please revisit these dates on your calendars, as they are very important and mandatory by all WHS Band members for the 2019 Fall Season! Please start getting used to the outdoors this week. Next week will be easier if you start acclimating now. All members are required to bring their own water container.
All information, including this letter in on washingtonmobands.com

If you have more than one child in the Band, the fee is $200 plus $100 per additional child. Please make checks payable to WHS Band.

Lyres and Flip Folders All Band Members, except percussionists and guard will need to have a music lyre and flip folder. This allows you to attach your music to your horn when we practice and march on the field and parades. Tuba, baritone and French horn players must have their own mouthpiece. Lyres and flip folders are available at the school to purchase.
Every student will need this regardless of their years in band. They are available at any music store.

This form should be returned when you check in at uniform checkout during the first week of school We need this in case something happens to you while you are at a performance and medical attention is required.
