Marching Pride Commitment Form (Past Due): There are still a few students who have not turned in their Commitment Forms. If we are missing your Commitment Form, you will be notified at the Kick-Off Meeting or during Band Camp. Majority of our students have turned in their commitment form. This was the form that was turned in with fees in May.
 
Marching Pride Band/Auxiliary Fee (Past Due): There are still a few students who have not finished paying off their fees. All remaining balances are due at the Kick-Off Meeting. Majority of our students have finished paying off their fees. Balances can be viewed in your Cut Time account.
 
Physical Exam Requirement: All students are required to complete a physical exam prior to Band Camp. We will accept the physical form from any healthcare provider, the CCPS Marching Band Physical Form, or the FHSAA Physical Form. VERY IMPORTANT FOR STUDENTS WHO ARE IN SPORTS: If your student plans on participating in a sport at PRHS, please use the FHSAA Physical Form.
 
Required Band Forms: In addition to the physical, there are several other required forms due at the Kick-Off Meeting. These required band forms can all be found on the band website under “Students” --> “Band Camp 2022.” 
 
Instrument Repair & Equipment: If you have not already done so, now is a great time to pick up your instrument and start practicing! Our trusted local vendors are Cadence Music and Christman Music. If needed, please be sure to get your instrument fixed and have all your needed supplies before band camp.
  • All woodwinds should have a swab to clean out their instruments after every practice.
  • All reed players should have a box of Vandoren reeds and a reed case.
  • All brass players should have valve oil and slide grease.
  • All percussion students should have a pair of snare sticks and a practice pad.
More information on instrument equipment requirements can be found on the band website under “Students” --> “Band Instrument Resources."
 
School Owned Instruments: Students who are using school owned instruments will receive these on the first day of band camp. We only provide the following school owned instruments for marching band: tenor sax, French horn/mellophone, baritone, tuba/sousaphone, and percussion.
 
Marching Pride Sponsors: We are reaching out to local businesses and contributors to the arts to help fund our program. Every gift matters and helps to provide our students with life-changing experiences.
