7/8 Night on 9/7

7/8 Night

Friday, September 7th

The 9-12 Band and Guard always enjoy welcoming the 7/8 Band students for this event. It’s a busy, but fun night.

7/8 students will be rehearsing with the High School students at 5pm, will eat with them, and then perform with them at the Boosters tailgate, on the field during pre-game, and in the stands during the first half of the game. After the High School students perform their show at half-time, the 7/8 students will return to the band room with Mr. Myers and will be dismissed. The students may return to the game with parents if you choose or may go home.

The 7/8 students are voting on their t-shirt design this week and t-shirts will be distributed prior to next Friday evening.

Please let us know if you have any questions. Looking forward to a great evening!
