Summer Band Camp I

Opening day of summer band camp at Newport High School is an exciting and terrifying experience, from what I can muster. I was unfortunate that during my freshman year, I fell "through the cracks", and didn't know of practices during the summer, so missed the ritual of washing Big Red (our band bus), as well as learning to march, and learning my charts. It was rough.

Anyways. Here are just a few pictures from the first day, where freshmen and rank leaders get together.

They all met in the New theater, and had a quick explanation of band, and what the season would be like.

An actual mellophone section this year. Hurray!

Count 'em. One, Two...


The secret to winning in Duck-Duck-Goose is to watch the person who is touching your head. If they accelerate when they approach you, then they will like touch someone very soon.





Someday, you can have a real job. (Just kidding Brian!)
