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.
