1 FMB NEWS The Official Newsletter of the Famous Maroon Band The Famous Maroon Band at Mississippi State University is one of the oldest and largest programs in the Southeast and has been a significant part of the Mississippi State family for more than 110 years. Greetings from the Band Hall! Directors Desk We hope that your summer is going well and that you are getting excited about the 2017 football season! Believe it or not, kickoff for our first game against Charleston Southern is just a few weeks away Halftime Shows Thanks to the good work of our student show selection committee, we have some great shows planned for this fall. Our first show is the Spy Show we read briefly last season. It features the theme from I Spy, Soul Bossa Nova (from Austin Powers), and Live and Let Die. Our second show is entitled Road Trip, and will feature music you might encounter as you drive across the country. Selections include New York State of Mind, Philadelphia Freedom, Do Watcha Wanna (New Orleans), California Dreaming, and Viva Las Vegas. In addition, we will perform our annual patriotic show and homecoming shows as we have in the past. As you can see, it s going to be a busy year for the FMB! 2017 Special Events Our Marching Honor Band is scheduled for September 2nd (vs. Charleston Southern). Be sure to tell your friends at home about this and encourage them to apply. Details will be posted on our website soon. We will host our annual Parent Day and Alumni Band on October 21st (vs. Kentucky). This continues to be one of the highlights of each season with over 700 parents, family members, and alumni attending. More information will be available closer to the event. Band Camp Band camp is our most important week of the year, and your attendance is required. We will work hard during this week, but we will have some fun as well. We all know that it will be hot in August, so please prepare yourself accordingly this summer by spending some time outside. This is one thing everyone can do to make our camp positive and productive. In this edition Directors Desk Important Notes and Color Guard information Pre-School Band Camp schedule Marching band travel schedule, Wind Ensemble & Jazz Band audition info Tell us your story and Dorm check in procedures Non-football calendar, Dietary considerations & Medical information Class Registration/Membership Everyone should be registered for marching band (MU 2511) no later than, July 1st. If you have not yet added the class, please do so as soon as possible so that we can make appropriate preparations for you at band camp. If you are not registered for the class by July 1 st and don t let us know the reason why, you will not be included on our band roster for this Fall. If you have received this newsletter, then you are on our office roster, but that doesn t mean you are registered for the class. Please check and let us know if your plans have changed so that we can make adjustments in our plans for the season. There is a lot of important information in this newsletter, so please read it very carefully. Band camp check-in, dorm check-in and the summer uniform information are a few of the more important items that need your attention. We will also begin to communicate with you through your msstate.edu account, so please check that account frequently for additional information. Enjoy the rest of your summer, and Hail State! -Ms. Lance, Dr. Taylor, and Dr. Aarhus

5 Tell Us Your Story... Thoughts from our members As I go into my junior year at Mississippi State, I can honestly say that the Famous Maroon Band has had the biggest and most positive influence on my college experience. I have met so many people and have had countless opportunities through this program. I love how determined and encouraging everyone is from the first day to the last. Nothing can compare to the countless hours of practice, traveling around the country, and cheering on the bulldogs with the friends who become family in the Famous Maroon Band. It s cool. I get to play a lot of high notes. Or at least I try to. -Random Trumpet Player -Logan Cessna (Guard), Biological Sciences I have really enjoyed being a member of the Famous Maroon Band. It has given me the chance to meet new people but also travel and do things I never would have done on my own. In addition, I feel like being in the band has given me a new appreciation for music and life that I have been able to transfer to normal life. I realize now that there are things bigger than ourselves and that everyone can work together for one common goal. -C.J. Blackmon (Alto Sax), Biochemistry Dorm Check-In Procedures The MSU Housing Department has agreed to allow ALL band members (new and returning) to move into their on-campus housing on SATURDAY, AUGUST 5th. You must report to Hathorn Hall (enter at the back, near Fresh Food Company) at 10:00 AM to complete paperwork and get your key cards. Any percussionists and squad leaders living in dorm housing will have an opportunity to check into their dorm prior to the scheduled time to report to the band hall. Percussionists will report to Dogwood Housing Offices at 2:00 PM on July 31st. Squad leaders will report to Dogwood Housing Offices at 2:00 on August 2nd. You will complete paperwork and get your key cards. Housing is working very hard to assist us with the early check in. Since our check-in occurs much earlier than the official dorm opening, there can be NO exceptions to the check-in time and procedures. Drumline & Leadership Dorm Check-In Procedures MONDAY, JULY 31st (Percussion) & WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 2nd (Squad Leaders, DMs, KKPsi leadership, and Social Committee): Students should report to the Dogwood Hall Housing office on your assigned date to complete your dorm check in. During Pre-School Band Camp, those students who live on campus should not drive to the Band Hall. Leave your vehicle parked in your residence parking zone and walk or bike to the Band Hall. Those students who live off campus should car pool as much as possible and plan to park behind the MSU Student Health Center. Parking in the gravel lot beside the band hall and across the street in the South Zone will be strictly prohibited. 5

Please bring your insurance card or insurance company name and policy number with you to camp so you can complete the form accurately. Although having medical insurance is NOT a requirement for membership in the Famous Maroon Band, we need to be aware of any special medical conditions so that we can assist you in case of an emergency. Information on health insurance available to students through MSU can be found at SUMMER BAND UNIFORM This year, we will once again wear a summer uniform for the early hot games and other designated events. The uniform will be a maroon Adidas polo, black athletic shorts, and baseball cap, and we will provide these items to all new members at band camp. NOTE: Returning members are expected to use their summer uniform from last year. In addition, you will need to provide these things for the rest of the summer uniform: 1) Athletic shoes that are predominately white and have white shoelaces. 2) Short white socks. 3) Dockers style khaki shorts (not olive or sand colored, and not cargo shorts). Please have these additional items secured by the beginning of band Famous Maroon Band
