2009 Brigade Season Set To Begin!!

     The start of the 2009 Lighthouse Brigade season is right around the corner!  Our recruitment night is Thursday, February 5th at 7:00pm in the Gifford Elementary School Auditorium.  Parents AND students are expected to attend!  There will be a lot of information given out at this meeting and it is also a great opportunity for veteran members to see everyone again.  For our new members, this is a great chance to start making new friends.  New parents will have a chance to ask some of the many questions I am sure many of them have about Brigade and what the season will bring.  I look forward to seeing a large turnout!



     The first camp is Saturday, February 7th (9:00am - 5:00pm) and Sunday, February 8th (1:00pm - 6:00pm).  For off-season camps - all members should bring:


- bag lunch for Saturday


- comfortable clothes (we will be marching - sweats/warm-ups and athletic shoes work best)


- water/snacks


- instrument (if you will be playing a Brigade instrument - don't forget your mouthpiece, valve oil, drum sticks, etc.)


- pencil


- binder w/plastic sheet protectors


- positive attitude (we are going to have lots of fun.....and we are going to work really hard!!)


     Please check out the Brigade website for more information and schedules.  Bring a friend to this camp!  Also - if you know in advance you will be unable to be at a camp - PLEASE contact Rex and let him know.  This season is going to be amazing!  The music is fantastic, the staff is going to be awesome to work with, our MACBDA tour should be very competitive and - best of all - we are going to Disney World!!  

- Rex out
