(Cancelled) Tuesday, July 28 and Thursday, July 30, 5pm-8pm – Post-Camp rehearsals prior to the start of school. These
rehearsals are crucial because we are off for a week after camp until school starts the following week. We cannot
afford to lose everything we gain at camps and I’m sure you are familiar with teenage retention issues. Students
should eat well before coming and bring snacks and everything else required at camps.

If you’re looking for a delicious way to help the band, visit El Monte on Wednesday, August 5th. When you check out, let them know you’re with the Buckhorn High School Band and a portion of their proceeds will come back to us.
The EAA Chapter 190 Monthly Fly-in Breakfast takes place on the 3rd Saturday of every month. Breakfast is served rain or shine. This is a wonderful fundraiser project. It’s a great opportunity to learn about aviation and the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA). To give a little history, the EAA Young Eagles program was launched in 1992 to give interested young people, ages 8-17, an opportunity to fly in a general aviation airplane. These flights are free of charge and are made possible through the generosity of EAA member volunteers. Flight Disclaimer: The Student’s parent/guardian must be present to sign a waiver to fly.
The BHS Band/CG provides buffet-style breakfast. There’s a wide range of folks who come out to enjoy our breakfast like Pilots and their family/friends who fly into Moontown from near and far, Boy Scout groups, and our local communities. The breakfast menu may include: Scrambled eggs, sausage, pancakes, grits, gravy, biscuits, fruit, orange juice, and coffee.
Volunteers are responsible for: Service line set up, cooking, replenishing the breakfast buffet items/supplies, and Cleanup. Most importantly we want to make our guests feel welcomed and we must show our appreciation for their generous donations and support.

Please wear comfortable tennis shoes and clothing, preferably your BHS band shirts if you still have one. It is important that we represent BHS Band/CG just at Mr. Souder expects everyone to during all events we participate in. Even if you don’t volunteer, we want to encourage everyone to come out and support BHS Band/CG and EAA Chapter 190. The cost is $7 for Adults and $5 for Children.
What better way to start the week than by helping our Band? And you get a great meal as a bonus! Stop by Schlotzsky’s Deli on University Drive anytime on Monday, August 17th. When you check out, let them know you’re with the Band and we’ll receive a portion of the proceeds.
