J.F. Webb Marching Warriors Band Camp:

July 21-24 8am-5pm
July 28-30 8am-5pm

Pre Band Camp recommendations:
- Go outside for a few hours a day between now and camp. Your body
will need time to adjust to the temperature and humidity.  It would
also be wise to go on a walk about an hour a day to get your body back
into shape some before camp.
- Begin drinking water NOW. Hydration starts BEFORE camp, not during.
- Take out your instrument and practice SOMETHING! It could be from
band last year, years past, or something you randomly find on the
internet to practice. There are tons of free music sites - you can
find pretty much anything!
- Check the lists below to make sure you have all that you need to
start camp. Attendance is MANDATORY unless you make prior arrangements
with Mrs. Townson.
