The originally published start time for Friday’s “Band Camp
Showcase” was 5:00 PM. We have adjusted the start time to allow a higher percentage of working parents/guardians/family members/friends
to attend. Our revised schedule is …
5:30 PM – Band members report to band room to assemble
instruments and final instructions.
5:45 PM – Band members move to practice field, warm-up in
sections.
6:00 PM – Band Camp Showcase presentation for family/friends
begins on Practice Field.
The Showcase does not have a specific end time due to the
fact that one portion of the showcase (the “march-off”) is not time-bound. We anticipate that the showcase will end by
7:00 PM.
Observers are invited to view the Showcase by standing along the sideline, sitting along the sideline (bring your own chair!), or standing atop the visitor bleachers in the football stadium and looking back toward the practice field.
Following the Band Camp Showcase, Marching Band families are invited to gather at “Every Day’s A Sundae” in downtown Downers Grove. All marching band members will receive a coupon for free ice-cream to celebrate the end of Band Camp.
