Register for Band Camp

I Heard We Get Paid to March and Travel - Really?

You heard correctly. Starting in 2011 a first year Marching Moc has all expenses paid (including travel, shoes, ball caps, and warm-up suits). Second year Marching Mocs receive $250. Third Year Marching Mocs receive $400 and Fourth Year Marching Mocs receive $600. Pep band members receive an additional stipend and basketball band travels all over the country following the team to NCAA tournament. Places we have been are Charleston, Chicago, Philadelphia, New York City, Phoenix, Savannah, Tampa, Miami, Las Vegas, Denver, and St. Louis to name a few.

Band Camp Information

• You will not get a confirmation email when you have registered for camp but will eventually get information emails closer to camp.
• During band camp, you will be living where you will be living for the fall semester. If this is on campus, make sure you indicate this when you register so that you will be allowed to move into your dorm early.
• Those who need an instrument can borrow one from UTC at no charge. You will be able to do this when band camp starts.
• Make sure you also sign up for marching band as a course, MUS 0300.
• What to bring to camp: YOUR INSTRUMENT (if you have one), sunscreen, a hat, a towel for morning yoga/stretching, a lyre if you have one, and a reusable cup for water.
• Any questions? Email Dr. Schafer
