Basketball Pep Band
Basketball Pep Band:
This group performs for select home Boys and Girls WHS basketball games. The Pep Band meets for a short time before every basketball game to rehearse in Room 201 at the Washington Campus of Waukegan High School. The WHS Pep Band is often split into multiple equal bands that rotate home basketball games (Purple & Gold Bands). The Pep Band is the sound of Waukegan High School Basketball. This ensemble is required for all high school band members. All Pep Band call-times for games are 1 hour before game time unless otherwise posted!

GENERAL INFO
LOCATION: All games will be played in the Dawg Pound at Washington Campus. Students should enter the main Dawg Pound entrance off of Jackson, and be ready to show their student ID to enter (students will be given a special card showing that they are a band member so that they don’t have to pay for admission).
CALL-TIMES: Call-time for games is 1 hour prior to game-time in Washington Campus Room #201. Example: a 7:00pm game-time will have a 6:00pm call-time, etc.
NUMBER OF GAMES: Each band (Purple & Gold) is assigned 5 scheduled total performances between 1st & 2nd semesters. Each student needs to attend the 1 performance before winter break, and 4 after.
IF YOU CANNOT ATTEND AN ASSIGNED GAME: If you have a conflict with a game to which you are assigned to play, it is your responsibility to: 1) talk to one of the Directors as soon as possible & email them, 2) coordinate a sub (same instrument and/or part as much as possible), and 3) make-up the game. You are still responsible to attend 5 games by the end of the season. If you miss a game, be sure to keep up with the amount of games you are to perform in each semester (at least 1 game by the end of 1st semester, 5 total by the end of the season). Remember that your attendance/participation in Pep Band constitutes a portion of the performance category of your grade in Band class.
SIGN-IN: In order to receive credit for the game, you must sign-in when you arrive. Failure to sign-in may result in you not receiving credit for the game. It is your responsibility to sign-in and not the responsibility of the Director(s) to remember if you attended that game.
CAN YOU ATTEND MORE THAN 5 GAMES?: YES!!! This is always welcomed and encouraged.
