Color Guard Rep, Michele Jones, will send out info regarding food and snacks.
Please consider helping out at a competition by riding the bus and being a chaperone! It’s sometimes a really long day, but just watching your kids and their friends work together and perform makes it all worthwhile. Michele has sent out a google doc to all of you, so please take a moment to sign-up.
Payment and the field trip form are due NOW. You will NOT BE ALLOWED ON THE BUS without the field trip form completed and signed.
The 7/8 Band and 7/8 Orchestra will travel to Disneyland for a studio session on Thursday, February 14th.
Specific details to be shared soon, but mark the date now!
If you haven’t already… Now is the time to pay for the 7/8 Band and 7/8 Orchestra Registration costs. The Disney trip (ticket and transportation) is included in the Registration costs. If you don’t remember, please contact our Receivables Treasurer, Jason Northrup.
In addition, we must have the field trip form to get on the bus. If you have questions, please contact the 7/8 Parent Rep, Adam Kline.
9-12 uniforms are in and will be worn on Saturday. Sandy will be at the Band room by 5:30pm on Thursday to check hems prior to rehearsal. Please have your student arrive just a little early to get this done.
7/8 Students
7/8 Drumline students are welcome to ride the bus to the competition and help push equipment on for 9-12 and then enjoy the other groups’ performances with the 9-12 students.
If your 7/8 student is planning on attending, they will need to make sure to complete a Field Trip Form and turn it into Ben or Mr. Myers. Students who have not turned in the Field Trip form will not be able to ride the bus.
Please have your student let Ben know at rehearsal this week if they will be attending so we know who will be there.
Cost for 7/8 to attend is $10 — which is the admission cost to the show.
7/8 may join 9-12 for lunch and pizza dinner.
