Summer Band

The West Lafayette Bands offer two levels of summer band for current 5th through 8th grade students.  The Advanced Band is for students who have completed 2 or more years of band.  The Intermediate Band is open to students with 1 or more years of playing.  We also have a neat tradition of giving older students (2 or more years) the ability to learn an approved secondary instrument in intermediate.  To do this, the student MUST also be enrolled in Advanced Band on their primary instrument (no extra cost to do this!).

Summer band rehearsals begin Wednesday, May 28 and meet weekdays through June 19.  All rehearsals take place in the high school band room and there will be a concert on Thursday, June 19 to showcase all of the summer programs.  The music we play in summer is VERY different from traditional concert music…usually pop songs, movie themes, video game music and more exciting, fun and unique music!

9:30 am – 11:00 am: Advanced Band (2 or more years of band experience)
11:00 am – 12:30 pm: Intermediate Band (1 or more years of band experience)

Summer Band is an excellent opportunity  to develop and refine playing skills during the “off” months.  The fee for participation in the summer band program is $115 per student.  In addition, Friday, June 20 will be an optional trip to Indiana Beach/Malibu Jacks for all summer students at an additional small cost. I hope you join us for a really fun time!
