Band Camp Begins Monday

"The Pride of Shaker Heights" returns to the field on Monday as the marching band begins band camp from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Middle School.  All band members should report to the Middle School auditorium at 8:30 am.  Bring your instrument and flip folder, a lunch, sunscreen, and water.  Remember, shoes must be worn at all marching band rehearsals, no flip flops.

Senior uniform fittings will take place immediately following band camp until 6 p.m. in the multipurpose room at the high school.

Here's a short video from Percussion and Raiderette camp last week to help get you in the spirit!

Friday 8/24 Schedule and Instrument/Music Pick-up

Due to the construction of the new high school field, the Preview Show scheduled for Friday, 8/24 has been cancelled.  Instead, we will be having Squad Day and a short rehearsal on Friday morning at the high school practice field.  The start time will be announced at band camp, but it will be over at 11:30 am.  We will then have a 5 pm call time on the practice field to prepare for our first game at Solon.

Percussion and Raiderette Camp starts this week.  Music is ready for all members and those who need marching instruments must pick them up on or before Thursday.  The band office is staffed daily from 8:30 am to 4 pm.
