Fall Guard Parent Meeting This Week

There will be a quick parent meeting for all high school fall guard parents this Thursday, July 24, 2008 at 8:30 PM in the high school gym. We will be discussing band camp. Please be sure to attend.

2008 Junior & Elementary Guard Camps

There will be several camps offered for the Junior and Elementary Guard members over the summer break for students to learn new equipment and sharpen their skills. The dates are as follows:

Rifle Camp - June 6 - 7, 2008 - 6:00 - 9:00 PM at Medlar View Elem.

Dance Camp - August 2, 2008 - 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM at Medlar View Elem.

Sabre Camp - August 4 - 5, 2008 - 6:00 - 9:00 PM at Medlar View Elem.

Flag Camp (Mandatory) - August 6 - 7, 2008 - 6:00 - 9:00 PM at Medlar View

Students must provide their own equipment. If your student is a Junior and is planning to spin sabre, she will need a 36 inch blade. If you have one that is in good condition you may use it. If you have one with and interchangeable blade, you will need a new blade that is 36 inches. Please let Patti Bennett know if your student is planning to attend the camps and which ones she plans to attend. You may email her at Pbennett@woh.rr.com. Payment is not due until the first day of the camp, but we must have a count ahead of time to plan for staffing.
