Sunday, 8/11
Sunday’s theme will be Sports Day! Support your favorite team by wearing a jersey or anything with their logo! At night, we’ll be doing a trivia night to test your trivia skills and learn some things about WPI!
Monday, 8/12
Monday’s theme will be Crazy Sock and Hat Day! Whether it’s a wizard hat, pirate hat, or even a silly baseball cap, we want to see your craziest hat! Forget your boring white socks at home and take out the craziest socks you have! At night, we will have our game night! Feel free to board games, card games, and gaming consoles.
Tuesday, 8/13
Tuesday’s theme will be Tourist Day.Break out those fanny packs! Dress as much as a stereotypical tourist as you can! At night, we’ll be doing a bake-off! Team up with your section and make a dessert better than the other sections! You will decide on what to make in the first few days of band camp.
Wednesday, 8/14
Dress in the colors of your favorite element for Wednesday’s theme: Element Day! Go the traditional route and do greens and browns for earth, blues and purples for water, reds and oranges for fire, or whites and grays for air. Or be creative and dress as your favorite element on the periodic table! That night, we’ll be having a campus-wide game to capture a flag. It’s a ton of fun and a favorite part of band camp!
Thursday, 8/15
Thursday’s theme will be Pixar Day. To really become one with our show, use today to dress as your favorite Pixar character, or even wear any Pixar merch you have! If you don’t know what to wear, have any questions or need more suggestions, let us know! We will end the day on a relaxing note with a movie night.
Friday, 8/16
Friday’s theme will be a Section Theme. Throughout the week, your section will work on a skit to present to the band at the end of the week – the section theme will tie into the skit that you create. It’ll be a surprise for everyone! At night, you’ll walk around campus with your section to get a personal tour from your section leader(s) and ask any questions you have about life on campus!
