This week begins our two most important weeks of the summer/fall season, with tomorrow starting our Half Day Camp! Our members will learn a lot this week, setting themselves up for Full Day Camp next week! All students should continue to get plenty of rest, hydrate, and take care of themselves in between rehearsals. This will allow for everyone to be their best at all times, which is crucial to their success this year.
As a note for our new members, attendance at rehearsals all summer/fall is always mandatory. As we begin to learn the marching drill for the season, there is a lot of coordination that occurs between everyone on the field. Please know that the more a student misses, the further behind they will become, which can potentially lead to a safety issue for them and the members around them. If you know in advance for any reason that a member has to be late, absent, etc, please contact a director ASAP so we have a record of this. Thank you for your assistance!

Half Day Band Camp Schedule (July 15-19):
Schedule is 9:00a-3:00p, Monday - Friday, in addition to Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 6:00-9:00p. Students should plan on bringing a healthy lunch with them each day during this week, as lunch will not be provided. We will have an indoor location available for students to store their lunch boxes, bags, etc. and students will eat lunch in the cafeteria each day.
For this coming week, because we currently do not have access to the band hall, we are asking for all students to make arrangements to leave campus on Tu/Th between 3:00-6:00p. Thank you in advance for your planning and understanding.
If you have not yet made a payment towards your student’s Fair Share Band Dues, please make arrangements to do so as soon as possible. These payments help provide the dinners for the students next week during Full Day Camp, in addition to instrument & equipment repairs, facility maintenance, t-shirts, music, marching drill, uniforms, band staff, etc. You may submit a payment in any of the following ways:
Cash turned in to the directors in person
Check made out to “Pace High School Band” (can be delivered in person or via mail)
Online Credit Card Payment via Ludus (please note of the added charge for using this online payment platform): https://www.pacehighband.com/online-payments
Please Note: We are actively working on updating all accounts on our transition away from CHARMS and will send information on our new system shortly. If you have already made any payments for the 24-25 season, you will be able to see those reflected in your new account, as well as any credits or discounts that may apply.
Thank you again for your continued support of the Pace High School Band Program. We look forward to seeing our Band members tomorrow morning!
