Greetings from Gifford Elementary School and Band Camp 2008!
Tuesday was a fantastic day for the 2008 Lighthouse Brigade. We are now done learning new drill!!!!! We still have to tweak a few charts here and there and learn how to get on and off the field - but a HUGE hurdle was jumped yesterday. We also did a full run-through (without the "met") and the members got through it all in one piece. Sure - there were some pretty ugly moments right now - but they got that first "performance" under their belts and that is a really big first step as we get ready for real competition next week.
The members enjoyed a terrific lunch of four kinds of pasta from Noodles and Company yesterday! Many thanks to my wife, Karen and Jenny Miller for working to make that happen. The "booster dinners" are once again very yummy and I would like to thank our amazing parents for all of their hard work getting all of us fed. Yesterday the menu was: hot beef sandwiches, baked beans, chips, salad, fresh fruit, and assorted desserts. We always look forward to seeing what they prepare for us each night and our boosters are such an important part of our final product on the field each season!
The weather is PERFECT for band camp these days - sunny and not too hot.
