Sample Band Camp Schedule: Monday through Friday, 2pm to 6pm
Band camp sets the tone for the year. It is not only a time that we learn and perfect our marching technique but begin to bond as a band and create the atmosphere of success and excellence that drives the Mount Vernon High School Band Program. During marching band and pep band are some of the only times when the entirety of the program works together. Freshman, Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors are all together, mentoring one another for a higher musical goal. Tone, musicality, ensemble, technique and balance are key components to that are focused on during the camp.
