It all started during lunch time at the Quad area of the school.  At first, we were off to a slow start.  People were standing around, watching to see what was going to actually take place….  One foot of tape went for a dollar.  Within the first 15 minutes, students were asking how much for a full roll of duct tape!  Thanks to Ace Hardware for donating all the duct tape for this event!  We literally love all the “support” we can get!

Most thankful to ALL of our Supporters!

If you are interested, please contact any Band Booster Board Member.

The responsibility of the Volunteer is to assist the Band Director and take care of Band Members at various events.  Volunteers are not in charge of Band Members, Volunteers are there to assist. Volunteers are to make sure Band Members are fed, watered, dressed, and in good spirits!!   Volunteers are there to support the Band Members, the Band Director and the Music Program.  Duties of Volunteers are outlined by clicking here.

Get involved, stay informed, and you won’t regret it.   Thank you! (See positions below)

Band Camp 2009 starts on July 23rd and boy, are we excited about it!  The Thursday (23) and Friday (24) is “Basics Training”. On Thursday, Section Leaders and Rookies only are to attend. On Friday, all band members (including Rookies) are to attend. Both Thursday and Friday will run from 3:00 pm – 8:00 pm. These two days should make for a great introduction period for the incoming band members where they can get to know the rest of the crew and their assigned Section Leaders.

On Monday, the 27th, Band Camp starts promptly at 8:00 am and runs through until 8:00 pm. This entire week will be a rigorous schedule where the members will learn the music AND the marching skills necessary to successfully compete at the season’s upcoming tournaments.  Bandmembers are strongly encouraged to bring a lot of water to drink during the course of the day.  Band Members who have or are planning on participating in the Meal Program sponsored by the Band Booster Board need to have their $37.50 payment submitted.  Parents who would like their band member to parcipate and have not been able to inform the Band Booster Board, please contact Tricia Schwerdt by sending an email to president@ttrbands.com.
