8/24/14 UPDATE

BAND BLOG BULLETS

- Bottled water donations are needed.

- Be sure to check the weekly schedule below for a slightly expanded rehearsal schedule, to make the most of visual consultant Rick Subel's visit.

- Thank you to the band families and members who have made this blog a successful means of communication about JA Band activities for the past 5 years. This week the blog's total number of pageviews passed 50,000.

BAND BOOSTER UPDATE - from Charlette Oswalt


Thank you to all the parents who have generously offered to provide meals before home games. The students enjoy the meals and the time together before the games.

Everyone who volunteered should have received an email with the schedule. If you did not receive the email or have any questions or problems with your assigned date, please let Charlette Oswalt (ceoswalt@go.olemiss.edu) know ASAP. A couple reminders:

- Paper goods will be in the Band Hall, provided by the Boosters
- Meals need to be set up and ready for the kids at 4:30
