8/12/12 UPDATE



Thanks to JA Band members Annie Campbell, Will Tribble, Chase Oswalt, and Michael Payne for helping with the painting of the parking lot for rehearsals on Saturday.

JA BAND SCHEDULE AUGUST 13-17


IMPORTANT NOTES:

- Please remind your student to bring a change of clothes (shorts and tshirt), plus socks and sneakers, for rehearsal each day. We will give the students time to change before practice begins.

- BOTTLED WATER NEEDED FOR REHEARSALS. With 25 students, we go through at least a case of water each practice. Especially with outdoor rehearsals beginning, it is vital that the students stay hydrated. Thank you for your donations!
