Scoggins Band Camp - Deadline Approaching
Band Camp is expected of all 7th, and 8th grade band students. Camp will be July 29-31, 5:30-7:30 PM at Scoggins Middle School. Cost to attend is $30 and includes t-shirt, food and fun!
>>>The deadline for online registration is Monday, July 8 <<<
Late Registration will include a price increase of $10 and t-shirts will be limited in size. Financial assistance is available. Please reach out to Mr. Davis directly if you have a question. We do not want finances to be a reason a student does not participate.
Summer Practice Incentive
For all students continuing in band next year at Scoggins, we will be having some incentives to encourage students to keep practicing over the summer. We will be using Make Music Cloud to track students practice.
There will be gift cards awarded for the following:
1) The most minutes practiced
2) The student who has the most 90+ submissions of the Scoggins Pep Band Music
3) The student who has the most exploration time learning additional music on their own via Make Music Cloud
**All Scoggins Pep Band Music, can be found on the band website. Students can click the "student" tab, and then select Pep Music. If your child needs the password to view the pdfs please reach out to Mr. Davis.
This is the music we will be playing and working on at Band Camp in July.
