Dear Ranger Band Members:

Welcome to all the new and returning members of the Ranger Bands! We have an exciting year in store, and we are thrilled to have you as a band member.


ABOUT THE BANDS:

The Ranger Band / Wind Ensemble holds rehearsals from 3:00 to 4:45 p.m. on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. The Ranger Band performs at all home football games and basketball games, rallies and other events as requested. The class code is MUSI-3131, and is a 1-credit class.

Please contact Dr. Tolman if you are interested in the Ranger Jazz Ensemble. Ranger Jazz rehearses Tuesday and Thursday from 3:25 to 4:40 . The class code is MUSI 4151, and is also a 1-credit class.

SCHOLARSHIPS: Northwestern Oklahoma State University provides a $1,500 scholarship ($750 per semester) to all students participating in NWOSU Ranger Band, and a $700 scholarship ($350 per semester) for participating in The Ranger Jazz Ensemble. Musicians performing with both groups receive $2,000 per year ($1,000 per semester). Additional scholarships are also available each year through application.

BAND CAMP: Band Camp is a crucial part of band development and is required of all band members wishing to receive the full scholarship in the Fall semester. Band camp begins Thursday, August 8th, for the leadership team, Drumline and Color Guard, and Sunday, August 11th, for all others. A complete band camp itinerary will be posted and sent to the band members in July.

For those living in university housing, you will be allowed to move into the dorms early during band camp, at no additional cost. If you will be living on campus, please check the appropriate box on this form to move into the dorms early.

NWOSU will provide all meals during band camp.

There is a $25 band camp fee due August 11th. This one-time fee pays for uniform dry-cleaning as well as some of the food during the week. Make checks payable to NWOSU Ranger Band.

All music with recordings will be available on the Ranger Band website.
