The biggest change is the late start to band camp this year. School is starting late, August 31st this year, so band camp is a week later. It is still two weeks, it's just starting a week later than usual.

We will be seeing some new competition for the football team this year from Concord HS and Pencader Charter, but it looks like we will be saying goodbye to Archmere and our 896 rivals Middletown. I have some USSBA shows on the schedule this year, and I'm still waiting to see what things look like in TOB before putting anything of that circuit on our schedule. Of course, this is all tentative, so check back often.
