2021 Summer Band Camp shirts are now available for purchase! These are optional $8 tee shirts you may preorder between NOW and Monday, July 26th. They will be delivered to campus after rehearsal on August 2nd. Be sure you have signed up for your Merchandise Remind by texting @UBPCMERCH to 81010 so you will get the notice the day the shirts are arriving on campus!
We want to be our best, and to do that, we have to support our program with the best volunteer effort. Your directors, staff, and UPBC officers work tirelessly to enable and elevate and we will find a way that you can contribute your gifts, talents and efforts to our students' success. You have something to give, and we can use all the help we can get.
Our volunteer interest survey is a great way to connect to the needs we have. We love for people to raise their hand and step forward to be part of something bigger than themselves. None of these volunteer tasks are accomplished alone, we expect to help each other do this as a team, and everyone is supported, guided, and backed up by other experienced volunteers and UPBC Board Members. We love new people!
