Notes:

  • Band camp is mandatory and students will not be allowed to perform with the marching band if they do not attend.
  • Students need instruments, sunblock, a water jug, hats, and should wear athletic attire (shorts and sneakers).
  • Students will be contacted by their section leaders at the start of summer and music will be made available for them to practice and learn over the summer in preparation for band camp.
  • Dinner break is typically from 4-5pm during band camp. Students can bring food, go out to eat with friends, or get picked up for dinner. We encourage everyone to spend that time together eating with their friends and sections.

For any questions related to marching band or Lynbrook Instrumental Music, please email Mike Pakaluk at

Information will also be posted over the summer on our website at http://www.lynbrook-music.org/
