I photographed the last day of camp for the Duluth High School marching band for the Duluth Patch newspaper on Friday, July 29, 2011. The band worked on their 10 minute halftime show for a week straight, spending hours each day working out logistics and learning the skills associated with the program. The last day of camp culminated with an hour demonstration for parents and friends as the students showed off what they have learned thus far. These are my favorite images from camp.
