Marching Band 2021 - Here is the Marching Band calendar for 2021. It is very close to final, but we are till waiting on competition dates. I will update the calendar as I receive more information.
Calendar (updated 7/21/21) Letter #1 Letter #2 Band Camp (7/27-8/6) - Band camp starts on July 27th with all of the leaders. The first day for all members is on Monday, July 28th. Returning members are to be there from 9:00am-12:00pm. All new members need to be there from 1:00pm-4:00pm. Band Camp is held at Tustin High School in room 603. During Lunch and Dinner breaks, the students will be on their own. Band Camp full days are July 29th, 30th, August 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th. Those days are from 9:00am-8:00pm. The break down for those days are the following: 9:00am-12:00pm - Morning Block 12:00pm-1:00pm - Lunch 1:00pm-4:00pm - Afternoon Block 4:00pm-5:00pm - Dinner 5:00pm-8:00pm - Evening Block Uniform Check Out (8/2-8/3) - We are in need of some parent volunteers to help fit students for the upcoming Marching Band season. If you are willing and available, please email volunteers@tustinhsmusic.com with the date you are able to help. We need 4-7 volunteers to make this work. Thanks in advance for all your time and efforts! Sign-ups Marching Band Rehearsals - There are a total of about 29 rehearsals from the end of August (when school starts) to the end of November (when Marching season ends). All rehearsals are mandatory. If every student only misses 1 rehearsal we would have about 3 students missing every rehearsal which would not make the season successful. Please make sure that you put all of the rehearsals on your calendar. Chili Cook Off (8/15) - During the Chili Cook Off we sell funnel cakes and deep fried Twinkies. We make over $1,000 on this one day. We need parent and student help to make this weekend successful. The students will sign up at school. We have specific jobs to sign up for.
