Parents this email was also mailed to all Parent Email addresses with additional camp info. If you did not receive it. Please email – and I will attempt to send it again…
How can I help my kid remain healthy through Band Camp?
1. Plenty of Rest
2. Staying Hydrated (water at camp and during the day)
3. Good healthy meals especially lunch and dinner
4. Since we will be outside – stay away from Soft Drinks
5. DRINK Water
6. EAT Vegetables
7. We will be exercising each morning, stretching – light running. Your child should be prepared for this.
8. Remember to bring all of the daily items mentioned several times below
Note: I will be very aware of the Sun and Need for regular water breaks!(Bring Water Bottles)
and finally when they come home after a long hard day at band camp…and they are tired and sore, remind them that anything worth having is worth working hard for. The power of completion of a task, project, goal and high level of commitment is invaluable. Encourage them to be strong and go further than they have before. It will pay off.

*Parents please note that most band members will be involved in putting equipment etc… away at the end of rehearsal so it is not likely that your child will be ready to go the moment that I dismiss them. So please give yourself a few extra minutes as we end the day. Parents, as always you are invited to get out of your vehicles and meet other parents who may also be watching the last few minutes of the daily practices.
