July 2024 Percussion Camp B details

The 2024 Timberview July Percussion Camp “B” is almost here: Monday, July 15th through Friday, July 19th, from 8 am until 4 pm at Timberview High School. I wanted to give you some reminders and information.

Make sure you bring these items to camp everyday:

• Thermos or bottles of water

• All music/exercises you have been given

• Pencil(s) with eraser

• Tennis/athletic shoes (no flip-flops, dress shoes, crocs, Chuck Taylors, etc.) 

• Sunscreen (required) 

• Hat (recommended) 

• Sunglasses 

• Comfortable clothes for inside/outside practicing (pit included). Everyone will be outside during some of the morning rehearsal for stretching/light jogging and either marching (battery) or technique/basics (front ensemble). Be prepared with appropriate clothing!

Your most positive attitude! This will be a long and (for some of you) challenging camp to go through. Have a great attitude, and come ready to learn and better yourself. 

You are allowed to leave campus for lunch everyday, bring a lunch or have a lunch brought to you at school.No food allowed in the band hall. Please eat your lunch in the hallway outside the band hall.NO ONE goes past the fine arts doors into Timberview hallways.Lunch is everyday at 11:00pm until 12:30pm.

Students, please be at camp on time (early) and plan on being there the whole day, all 5 days. The success of the season depends on the amount of work we get done during our percussion camps. This will be the largest amount of time we will have to learn and improve. We also are bringing in guest clinicians for each section, and you will want/need to be at every minute of rehearsal. Thank you for working out any conflicts ahead of time.

If you have any questions, please email me.

I’m looking forward to beginning the 2024 marching season and having a great camp!
