Crazy Creekers: Get ready to work hard and have a lot of fun at “Band Camp 2009 – Mardi Gras!!!” Our goal for the week is to learn our first half-time show, pre-game show, and develop lasting friendships and camaraderie with band members and staff.
There is no doubt that each of you will work hard during band camp week. With hard work comes discipline, character, and self-gratification. This will, in turn, lead to good habits and set the tempo for the rest of the school year.
