Tis the season to begin thinking about the summer, and planning accordingly. Each year I receive information on a number of terrific summer camps, and our location places us exceptionally close to many of these. At this point there is information in this article about two of these, both with options for band and orchestra students.  One is at Indiana University in Bloomington, and the other is the Music for All (Bands of America) Summer Symposium held in Normal, Illinois. Videos from the Music for All camp are also included. Click "Read more" for more information.

On September 23, 2008 both band classes spent a portion of the class period reviewing several videos meant to expose them to the various types and styles of music they are performing in their marching show. Since many students have asked where they can view the videos, I have embedded them in the article below. Please note that all of the videos were obtained from YouTube.
