This calendar is provided for general planning purposes only; the final rehearsal and performance calendar will be distributed at band camp. Other performances may be added, including potential exhibitions at high school festivals. It is possible and even likely that at least one of our home football games/performances will be moved to either Friday or Saturday night. The schedule distributed at band camp will reflect any changes.
Specific camp schedules with detailed information will be available on the members only pages in mid-June; members will receive an email with instructions on how to access this material. A final schedule for the Bullets Marching Band will be distributed at the beginning of band camp.
Once classes begin, the Bullets Marching Band rehearses on Monday evenings from 7:30-9:30pm and Friday afternoons from 4:10-6:00pm. Be sure to save these days/times in your course schedule - don't register for other courses during these times.
