This is a friendly reminder that our Band Camp Exposition show is taking place on Friday, at the Glen Lake football field at 5 pm!
These students have been showing up every day, whether they felt too tired or not. They have put in the work, and they want to show off what they've learned in this long, hot, and poor air quality week that they've endured.
Please join us in celebration of the end of band camp performance, followed by a hot dog dinner that is put on for the families of the students.
A message from our Band Boosters President:
" During dinner and performance, we will have a donation jar set up. Please consider donating, as we are working hard to build up our band program"
I hope to see you there tomorrow, and thank you for supporting the 2025 Glen Lake Marching Band
