For the 2nd straight year, the Sousaphones reign supreme at the Battle of Band Camp and held off a last minute challenge from the Percussion, Honeybees and Trumpets to win a breakfast cooked and served by Mr. Bean!  However, victory belongs to the entire Busy Bee Band & Honeybees. This year’s Battle closes with an incredible $22,934 raised, just surpassing last year’s total. Thank you to the nearly 200 individuals who donated and everyone who shared our posts and followed us along our time at Camp Caesar. Your support of our program has been nothing short of remarkable. For those who donated, you will be receiving receipts via email.  ​Congratulations to the Sousaphones.  And congratulations to all eight sections for making the 2026 Battle of Band Camp unforgettable!

For our 2027 Battle we are seeking 2–3 partners to sponsor the Battle of Band Camp and be prominently featured on all media involved in the venture.  The 2026 campaign generated over 1.6 million impressions and interactions on Facebook, Instagram and Tik-Tok and attracted nearly 200 individual donors making this a fantastic opportunity to promote your business while supporting student musicians.  If you are interested in partnering with the Busy Bee Band & Honeybees, please contact us!
