Band Camp Volunteer Needs

The summer heat and long days make volunteer very important for health and safety of our students during band camp.   If you would like to volunteer at band camp, please see the options below.  Please make sure you registration with UCPS is also current. No current registration with the county means no volunteering

What do I need for Band Camp?


Band is fun, but there are few things that you will need in order to do well and be successful over the 2 week period! 

​
  • Athletic shoes!  There are no flip flops or sandals worn by students at band camp and students must wear shoes at all times. This is for your student's safety. 1 foot or ankle injury can end their season before it starts! ​
 
  • Athletic clothing.  Shorts and Cool tops like T-shirts or a Tank (no spaghetti straps) 
 
  • A bottle that can hold A LOT of water. We suggest one that can hold at least a gallon at a time. Refilling a bottle at the band field is hard so being prepared with your own is very important!  
​
  • Lunch/Dinner to eat. Camp run from 8am-8pm. Student are not allowed to leave campus in that time period. We do ask them to bring a packed lunch and dinner for their afternoon and evening breaks. 
 
  • Shades! it bright and our field faces directly east and west. 
 
  • Sun screen.  The sun can be harmful if you don't were it and burns are not fun! 
 
  • Your working instrument.  You can't be a band with no instrument.  School owned instruments like tubas and low brass equipment will be checked out on the first day of camp. 
 
  • A good attitude.  Band camp is fun, but it isn't always easy. A good attitude will get you a long way and help you be successful.
