2010 ROOKIE BAND CAMP, BAND CAMP & ORCHESTRA SUMMER CAMP INFORMATION

In a very unusual schedule, our first home varsity football game will take place before school even starts. The Varsity Football: Trabuco Hills High School vs. Capistrano Valley High School will be held on Friday, September 3, 2010 @ Trabuco Hills High School in Mission Viejo, California. The game starts at 7:00pm. The call time for the Thundering Mustangs Marching Unit is 6:00pm. This is a mandatory event for every member of the Marching Unit (band, drumline and guard).

Band Camp will end at 4:00pm that afternoon, an hour earlier than normal. This will give the students enough time to go home, take a shower and eat dinner before returning to school at 6:00pm. For this football game only, the dress attire is white polos and long jeans. If you purchased a white polo, those can be picked up on Thursday, September 2, 2010 after Band Camp ends for the day.

The students will perform the Star Spangled Banner, play Pep Band music but will not perform the field show.

We could use more chaperones for this football game. If you are free and can chaperone, please contact Jon Bender or Dave Yingling. Hope to see you at the game!

WATER DONATIONS NEEDED: With Rookie Band Camp, Band Camp and Orchestra Summer Camp starting this week, we need to provide the students lots of water to keep them hydrated! We would like have water available for the students on every day of their respective camps. If you would like to donate a case of water and earn 10 participation points, please do so by dropping off the water with your student's name on it in the Music Room. Remember to sign-up on the sheet to get your points! We would take both the regular size or the small bottles. Thanks for helping to keep our students hydrated!

With the school year about to begin, there are many opportunities for every family in the instrumental music program to fundraiser money to help cover your student expenses in the program. Here are some of the current fundraisers:

Please see the Fundraisers page in the Music Boosters section for complete details. If you have any questions, please contact our VP of Ways & Means - Maria Barajas - at barajas92688@cox.net or at (949) 422-2093.
