Band Camp

New to High School Marching Band or Freshman?

Soon, there will be a link here to serve as a "one stop shop" for everything you need to know about Marching Band Season!

Total cost for camp will be $475. There is a $25/student discount per sibling. You may pay in full for the camp at any time, or in installments. Those installments would be:

June 7: $150

June 21: $175

July 5: $150

Checks should be made out to “Petoskey Band Boosters,” and have student names and the words “Band Camp” on the memo line. You can also pay via Vemo to @PetoskeyBand-Boosters (be sure to note "Band Camp" with the payment).

Any Oleson’s slips need to be turned in to the band offices by July 7.

Camp will officially end with a performance at Ferris State University.

Band Camp Q&A

Snacks Donations Question: Can you clarify....are you looking for INDIVIDUAL portions, pre-wrapped? For example, if I sign up for veggies....how much would constitute one slot? If signing up for salty snacks.....one big ol' bag of chips for one slot or a large box of individual bags to count as one slot??

Answer: We are not necessarily looking for individual portions for Band Camp snacks. For example, you could send a bag of baby carrots and that would be just fine because we put them in a bowl or on a tray and kids can serve themselves. If you were to send a bag of pre-popped popcorn, we would pour those into cups or coffee filters to serve to the kiddos. As far as "slots" on the sign up, we are pretty loose as far as what counts as a "slot". If you sign up for one "slot" but bring 4 boxes of granola bars, that's great!
