BAND CAMP #2 will be held the last week of July and in to the first week of August and will be from 8:00 AM – 6:30 PM.  This camp is an intense week of learning and training for all band and guard members in preparation for the upcoming competition season. This is the time necessary for students to learn the music and show designs the band will employ on the field during halftime shows, the FBA Marching Band Performance Assessment, and various competitions. All Band and Guard members are required to attend this camp. Band Camp #2 is the equivalent of eight weeks of regular rehearsals. Those holding jobs are expected to clear that time so that they will be in full attendance at all activities of Band Camp. Students who miss camp will most likely not be able to participate in band for the upcoming school year.  *See Calendar for exact dates at https://www.stonemandouglasband.com/calendar
