about the virtual band camp
Traditionally, in preparation for the upcoming school year, the bands go to Interlochen for one week of marching band fundamentals, concert rehearsals, sectionals, a concert performance and evening social activities. The students are housed, fed and rehearsed in the camp facilities, but we provide our own faculty and supervision. Any present or future member of the Huron High School bands is expected to attend this fun and rewarding week of music making.
After weeks of planning and assessing, we had created a plan for an opportunity to have an in-person, on-site marching band camp. Unfortunately in light of our current standing with the pandemic, the AAPS Administration and Music Faculty have canceled all in-person music activities this summer. In light of this disappointing but necessary decision, the Huron Band Directors, our student leadership, and our distinguished alumni have set up a Virtual Camp for our students. This experience will not be an exact replacement for our traditional Interlochen experience, or an in-person marching experience, rather due to our current limitations, we will offer an opportunity for our students to engage in sectionals and participate in many of our traditional camp activities (i.e. the Rat Races). We are inviting all 2020 Huron High School Band Members (Symphony Band, Concert Band Green, Concert Band Gold and Varsity Band Members) to participate in this essential and fun experience.
We will have a session to prepare our student leaders on August 16th and then camp will begin on Wednesday, August 19th and conclude on Saturday, August 22nd, concluding with Drum Major Auditions. Our camp will be staffed with former Huron Band Alumni and professional musicians who will assist with daily sectional instruction and activity supervision. Specifics will be announced in following communications via email with those who have registered. There is no cost for our virtual camp, but were are asking for donations to help with facilitating the event.
The registration deadline is Monday, Aug, 17th 2020. Please meet this deadline so we may successfully plan our activities.
