In the Director's Corner 

Welcome new members! I hope you all had a great time at our June camp last week. The leadership team and I were very impressed with your positive attitudes, musicianship, and marching skills! Thank you to everyone who attended the camp. If you have any questions throughout the summer, do not hesitate to reach out to your section leader or me.

I hope all of our returning members are having a great start to summer! I will be out of town the next three weeks for my master's program but plan to add some “open-room” days to the calendar throughout July so you all can come to the band room. 

Have a great summer!

All In, Always. 

Musically Yours,

Mr. Lockie
