Band Camp Information

Parents and Students,

I hope you all are having a great summer break.  This year is going to be a great year for our FHS Marching Jaguars! I just wanted to take a moment to remind everyone about the schedule for band camp. 

July 25th- July 28th PRE CAMP
- Guard, Percussion, Student Leaders and First Year Marchers 8am-3pm
- ALL STUDENTS 1pm-3pm

July 31st - August 4th BAND CAMP WEEK 1
- ALL STUDENTS 8am-6pm

August 7th- August 11th BAND CAMP WEEK 2
- ALL STUDENTS 8am-8pm

All students will be rehearsing Mondays.Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 3pm-6pm Starting August 10th until the end of marching season. 

All students should bring a bag lunch each day.  The band boosters will be providing dinner the week of August 7th. No student will be allowed to leave campus for lunch or dinner. 

There will be a band parent meeting on Tuesday, August 1 at 6:00 PM in the band room. This will be your chance to learn about the marching season, fundraising, band dues, and ways to volunteer. 

In preparation of band camp, the boosters need your help. The band students will consume hundreds of bottles of water and sports drinks because it is always HOT during camp. Please start asking for donations from local businesses or purchase items when on sale. Donations can be dropped off in the band room starting the first day of band camp. We will take donations during all 3 weeks of camp. We currently have 80 band members on the roster. 

Thank you for supporting the Forestview band program! If you have any questions please email Mr. Gibson at njgibson@gaston.k12.nc.us
