BAND BOOSTERS - MEETING TUESDAY

There will be a JA Band Booster Meeting this Tuesday, September 10, at 7:00 pm in the band hall.

Several possible fundraisers and other activities will be discussed, including the Marching Band Festival, magazine sale, Teen Alley at the JA Carnival, and others.

The more parents we have involved in these activities, and the more money raised, all the better. Your time, efforts, and financial support continue to have a very positive impact on these remarkable students!

Thank you to all the parents who help with the mat and boxes before and after each show. We have developed the following diagram to help with the setup:

Thank you also to Beth McWilliams and Kate Bowman for providing food for the band before the game Friday. The students greatly appreciated the "fuel" before their busy night and during the break.

Best of luck to Color Guard members Samantha Hill, Caroline Burford, and Hannah McCowan, who attended the MS Lions Band Guard Workshop on Saturday, to begin preparation for the November auditions.
