Happy Summer Cy-Fair Band Family,
I hope everyone is enjoying their summer vacation! Rehearsals start on Monday! Please make sure your student is acclimating to outside time.
*By August 1st, your student must have a CFISD physical form on file with the band program. Students without this form will not be allowed to rehearse with the band. I hear Access Health Clinic on Louetta in Spring is charging $30 and Excel Urgent Care at Skinner and 290 is $35 for physicals. Please remember you must provide an official CFISD physical exam form to the physician to use and sign. Parents will fill in the medical history portion and turn that in beginning Monday to Mr. G.
The first week will be very easy and begin to build in intensity to August 1st. We provide this transition for the students in a safe manner but would recommend for their comfort level a few things:
- Drink mostly water as we approach the start of band camp.
- Take walks and spend some time in the heat during these times 9-11am, and 6-7pm. As we crank up our activity level, this will be the peak times of activity during the most heat of the day outside.
Please view this fun video our past drum majors made about preparing for band camp!
