Mini Band Camp!

 The high school recently held a week-long mini band camp to give the eighth graders a taste of what they had in store this fall for marching band.  I've learned through Garrett's last two years that marching band is a grueling, exhausting experience but such a wonderful place to learn discipline, make friends, and bond.  Caroline will start this August in the KGHS marching band and this camp was so much fun for her!  She was truly exhausted when the weekend was over, but she loved hanging out with her friends and seeing Garrett in a different light.  
Caroline is most excited about the competitions (4 hour long bus rides with her friends--wooooo hooo!), marching in the Fall Festival parade, playing at football games, and the 2 out-of-town trips that the marching band takes in the winter and spring.  Garrett just went to Hershey Park last weekend for a marching band competition and trip and the KGHS band scored the highest-- 98.2 out of 100!
