Due to everyone just getting back from Washington, DC, The 2022 Higley Marching Knight Band Camp was held at the school this year. The band members, directors, staff and parent volunteers still made it a memorable one.
Day 1 started off with a quick orientation and Ice Breaker. Both the first two days included morning sectionals where everyone got to know others in their section. Marching basics and a fun activity rounded out the evening. Day 2 brought the first Full Ensemble Rehearsal.
The morning of day 3 changed things up a bit as the band was able to view some DCI videos, learned how to read drill and came up with their Section Crests. After an afternoon of hard work, marching and playing for the first time, the band boarded buses and headed to a local trampoline park for some fun bonding time.
Days 4 and 5 had the band beginning to learn the drill for the opener of this year’s show “The Quest to the Island of Gold”. Day 5, the final day of band camp finished with a wonderful performance for friends and family to show off what the band had learned over the week.
