Summer

Dear Lamar Band Parents,

Below is a list of Lamar Summer Band Camp dates and times.  The camp rehearsals will begin on Monday, August 12.  Please make plans attend the following events.

These rehearsals are crucial to a good start to the year as we will be preparing our pieces for the pep-rallies in the fall.  It is likely that anyone who misses these rehearsals will feel lost and behind once school starts.
