BAND CAMP
The Band has been a continuous and very beneficial element of the Kansas Shrine Bowl since 1984. The idea of a band camp developed to fill a void at the Shrine Bowl because regular high school bands were not available in the summer months, when the Shrine Bowl was held.
The Kansas Masonic All-State High School Marching Band Camp is held at the site of the annual Kansas Shrine Bowl All-Star Football Game. The camp begins on the Tuesday before the last Saturday in July. Annually, a total of 180 to 225 of Kansas’ best high school musicians are showcased in this event that is capped by the pre-game & halftime performance in the Kansas East-West All-Star Shrine Bowl football game. The Band also performs at the Shrine Bowl Banquet on Friday evening, and Saturday morning the Band leads the Shrine Bowl Parade through a downtown area.
Student's camp fees are sponsored by Masonic and Shrine organizations throughout the state. The Band is administered and managed by the Kansas Masonic Foundation. The band camp proceeds are used for educational loans and grants and for the financial support of the Oncology Clinic at Kansas University Medical Center
Additional Band information is available by calling the Kansas Masonic Foundation office in Topeka at 785-357-7646 or by e-mailing Lynne at lynne@kansasmasonic.foundation
