2008 Edison Marching Eagles Pre-Season

 

        Here it is June and preparations are already underway for the 2008 Marching season. A preliminary calendar of all Marching events has been created and is available as a pdf document.

        Rookie Camp is August 6-8 with two sections daily, one from 8am to 12 noon and another from 1pm to 3pm. Band Camp for all marchers starts the following week and will run August 11-15 and 18-22 with three sections daily: 8am -12 noon, 1pm to 4pm and 6pm to 9pm. Percussion and Colorguard times may vary, TBA. All of these dates are MANDATORY, NO EXCEPTIONS.

        Starting September 2nd, 2008, weekly rehearsals will also be held with full band rehearsals on Tuesdays and Thursdays and sectionals on Wednesday or as determined by the section leaders.

        All of these events are already blocked out on the calendar. The times will be filled in as they become available. Remember by clicking on the month ('August 2008', 'September 2008', etc you can get the month on a single page for printing). Missing from the calendar right now are all Home football games and Homecoming. All HOME football games, regular season and play-off, are MANDETORY. A pep band will be sent to all AWAY play-off football games which are optional.

        Once the menus for this year's Marching Band Camp dinners have been selected they will be posted here. We will try to address most dietary concerns. If there is anything that we need to know about, please contact the EBPO President, Craig Lelansky, at EBPOPresident@edisonband.com. Please note that this year, like last year, EBPO is only providing dinner on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Other arrangement must be made for your students on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
