2006 Band Camp First Day Schedule
The 2006 UB Band Camp will begin TUESDAY, AUGUST 22.
ALL Band members are requested to begin CHECK-IN for Band Camp at 12 NOON in the STUDENT UNION LOBBY on the North Campus.
ALL members MUST CHECK-IN at the Student Union prior to moving into their assigned residence halls. You will not be permitted to move into your room if you have not checked-in at the Student Union.
To ensure a smooth check-in, and to streamline the process of your arrival, please ensure that you have completed the ONLINE REGISTRATION prior to your arrival. We especially need to know your UNIFORM SIZE, and whether you NEED TO BORROW AN INSTRUMENT. Band Camp will be very boring for you if you have to wait for us to obtain an instrument for you! |
