Unfortunately, we cannot provide housing for students who don&#8217;t have on-campus housing in the fall.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\";\"><strong>Attendance<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nOur outstanding band organization did not gain its international reputation without the full attendance of its members. Accordingly, your perfect and timely attendance is expected to be the norm. Please print and keep the camp schedule for reference during band camp. Minor adjustments in the rehearsal schedule will occur as needed; however, the time parameters will not be expanded. Ask off from work NOW!<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\";\">Equipment<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\nYour instrument and equipment should be brought to each rehearsal (including our first meeting). You will need a pencil to mark your music and drill charts, and a wire stand for all music rehearsals. During rehearsals it is very important to wear only quality athletic footwear. Long practice hours will take a toll on your feet, so be prepared!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Uniforms: <\/strong><br \/>\nUniforms will be checked out during band camp week.\u00a0In addition to your black uniform shoes, each student must purchase his or her own white uniform gloves ($3.00). Everyone wears the same type of shoe for the Marching Thunder. A representative will take orders for shoes during camp ($40).<\/p>\n<p><span style=\";\"><b>Instruments<\/b><\/span><br \/>\nThe instrument manager will check out university-owned instruments during the first meeting of band camp. All large instruments (Sousaphones, percussion, baritones and mellophones) are provided by the University free of charge. However, individuals are responsible for any damages. Please take care of our precious instruments!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Colorguard<br \/>\n<\/strong>Members will be required to purchase some personal items for use in the guard. Please be prepared to make these purchases upon arrival at camp. Please check with Maurica Smith\u00a0for additional information.<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Majorettes<br \/>\n<\/strong>Members will be required to purchase some personal items for use in the guard. Please be prepared to make these purchases upon arrival at camp.
