Registration
Before your student attends the first day of band camp, one of our volunteers will need to meet with you and make sure all of your paperwork is in order. This includes physical forms, signing up to volunteer at events and more! You must come with your student to do this.
There are two times that you can register for band camp: Sunday July 17th from 2 - 6 PM and Monday, July 18th between 10:30 AM and noon. You must come to one of these two events but if there is some reason that neither of those work, please email Mr. Everhart. everhartm@fultonschools.org
Paperwork
There are two systems that you must register with in order to participate in band: CHARMS and DragonFly Max.
Students must be registered in DragonFly Max to upload physical and waiver forms. Go to the link below and register for an account. When it asks you what sport you are playing, select "Band".

Preparation
On July 17th, there will be a volunteer booster work day at the band room from 2 PM to 6 PM where we will organize equipment, sort uniforms, build props and other fun / important things to get ready for the season.

We would love to have anyone come who would like to contribute their time.
