Registration for Eden Prairie Band Camp 2012 is now available online.  In it’s 43rd year, Band Camp offers Eden Prairie band students a unique opportunity to work hard, play hard and have a ton of fun.  This year’s camp runs from Sunday, August 12th to Saturday, August 18th.  Current 6th – 11th graders registered for band next year are eligible to attend. Continuing this year, older students not in Eagle Band will be part of the Blue Devils program — a different musical experience, but all the same fun and games.
