How much time does marching band take?
Band Camp- The band arrives at the University a week before classes start for “fun in the sun”. The daily band camp schedule runs in two sessions with afternoons free for students to take advantage of early arrival; i.e. buy books, setup their dorm rooms, have fun, and everyone’s favorite… take a nap! (Session 1: 9 am-1 pm; Session 2: 5 pm-10 pm). Following Band Camp the band will rehearse three nights per week (MWF 6:30-8:30 pm). The band will perform at all home football games, select away games, and other public performances. The Marching Band season concludes in early December. For detailed information please see the band schedule.
