All payments should be turned into our treasurer OR parent board(ABC). For any comments and concern let the band director, Mr Lam know at klam@ggusd.net.
JOINING PROCESS
All members that are planning to join are required to go to clinics and camps. Going to these practices helps members learn basics that are needed throughout the season. These rehearsals are crucial for practice and they give members the opportunity to get to know each other and bond with one another.

Every member is expected to be on flag and learn the right technique and basics. For weaponry, there will be auditions and those who are qualified will have a spot on the weapon line.
