Oceanside High School Band

This week marks the first full performance of our field show for the school at our first Home Football Game. Unfortunately our field isn’t ready yet so we’ll be playing at El Camino. Please see the schedule information below as it is very different from most football games.

Our regular Tuesday Night Rehearsal will be held at OHS on Tuesday 9/14 from 4:30pm – 7:30pm. Thursday Sectionals & Rehearsal for winds will happen from 2:30pm – 4:00pm and 7th Period Percussion & Pageantry will happen from 2:30pm – 4:30pm on Thursday 9/16.

Our first Home Football Game vs Mira Mesa will be happening on Friday 9/17 at El Camino High School. Contracts and medical forms must be turned in to be able to perform. All students must have marching shoes to perform. Please see the information in the 9/13 Instrumental Music Update for more information. We will be changing into and out of uniform at ECHS. The 2010 Handbook has information on this procedure, as well as the clothing required to be worn under the uniform.
