Band Families,
I hope everyone had a chance to see the band last weekend. If you didn’t, you missed two wonderful performances. We are incredibly pleased with the students’ work and very excited about their potential with this show. Of course, this weekend will also be busy rehearsing at the stadium and hosting Olde English on Saturday. Please be sure to sign up for a work assignment using the link provided below. Plan to be in the stands to see our band perform at 8:45 as we add new elements and the students continue to increase their performance level, so it is even better than last week.
Additional information for this week includes:
