UCMB Pre-Season
The Saturday 9 days before the first class day of Fall Semester is the traditional first day of "Band Camp" commonly referred to as "Pre-season". On that day leaders, first year members, percussionists, and color guard arrive on campus to begin the new UCMB year. The first two days focus on orienting new members and giving the drum-line, front ensemble, and color guard a solid beginning. Traditional music selections and Our "marching routine" including the full repertoire of marching basics is taught and new members are prepared to learn our marching show when the other returning wind players arrive on Monday.
