South Fort Myers High School Music Department

 

 

 

BAND CAMP IS MANDATORY FOR ANYONE MARCHING,

In the event of rain, outdoor practices will become indoor practices. All camps are held at South Fort Myers High School. Each day begins with roll call in the band room.

Please do not schedule doctor's appointments or anything else that will cause your child to miss any of the camp. If you have questions please fill out the information on the CONTACT US page of our web site –   www.wolfpackmusic.com. 

Each student will be required to check in at the welcome table upon arrival on the first day of Band Camp, 7/25/11. Please park and come to the registration table with your child. Volunteers will be there to assist you and your child with the collection of your Reimbursement Fee deposit and in filling out contact information sheets and other required forms.

 

Marching Band Reimbursement Fees for the 2011-2012 school year will be $100.00. Each Marching Band student will be assessed this fee for the expense associated with the dry-cleaning of uniforms, t-shirts, auxiliary uniforms, bus transportation to competitions and association dues.  This is not a participation fee!  This amount is payable in full by the last day of Band Camp, Friday, July 29th. The $100.00 represents a $25.00 early bird discount to encourage early payment.  We urge you to take advantage of this discount. If not paid by July 29th, the Reimbursement Fee amount becomes $125.00 and is due by October 14th. Please note that a $50.00 deposit is due on the first day of Band Camp, 7/25/11, regardless of which option you choose. The names of all students with outstanding balances will be reported to the Administration fees and fines list which will not allow attendance of the following school functions: homecoming, prom, grad bash, and graduation.

 

All marching band students will be responsible for paying for their marching shoes. The estimated cost for the shoes is $40.00. Payment is required before the shoes will be distributed.

 

The Band Boosters want to encourage you to keep up to date on all Music Department news by checking the calendar on our  website, www.wolfpackmusic.com.  We also want to encourage you to stay informed about all information pertaining to the Band Program by becoming an active Booster Club member and attending the booster meetings. The first booster meeting of the 2011-2012 school year will be held on Tuesday, July 26th at 6:00 p.m. Your participation at the booster meetings is imperative to the ongoing success of the Band Program at South Fort Myers High School. You will be kept informed about the marching band season and be given the opportunity to volunteer for concessions and contests during the marching band season.

 

Because we will be  presenting an overview of the marching band season and volunteer opportunities,  each child in the marching band will be required to have one parent/guardian  representative at the July 26th Booster Meeting. Please mark your calendar now for this important date. Please contact us if you have any questions.
