There are some
updates to this weeks schedule and a few more announcements....
UPDATES:
Drumline practice schedule is as follows:
Tuesday - 2:30-5:30
Wednesday - 6:30-9:00
Friday - 2:30-4:00
Pep Band:
There is a game on Wednesday; however, since drumline
is practicing there are not enough students to actually
perform at the basketball game.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Theater Performs The Miracle Worker:
The theater department is bringing to you the Miracle
Worker starting this Thursday and ending with a Sunday
mantinee. Show times are 7:00 each day with a mantinee
at 2:00 on Sunday. Please support the theater department
by attending any of the performances they are offering
this week.
March 24, 2012 Indoor Guard and Drumline Competition:
The link below is the sign up
genius for the indoor guard and drumline competition
we are hosting on March
24, 2012. As you know, this is a huge honor to host
such an event. We currently have 61 units registered
to compete that day and need everyone's help in order
to make this a success.
Since this is a guard/drumline event, we are asking
for 100% participation from both groups. Band program
parents/students, please don't feel as though you cannot
help...You absolutely can and we welcome all of your
assistance no matter how much you can help, but would
like to be able to count on you for at least 3-4 shifts.
Please note that in order to make this an enjoyable
day, we are trying something different in the sign
ups. The duties are listed with a discription of the
task, but there are also shifts listed every three
hours. This way you don't have to feel like you are
stuck at any one duty for the entire day...unless you
want to be at that duty all day. We would like you
to be able to enjoy some of the program as well and
perhaps allowing you to switch your volunteer time/duty
will help to make the day more enjoyable for you. We
are not asking for committee chairs at this time, but
will need to have a big meeting prior to the competition
in order to have a walk thru and discuss specific requirements
of each duty. Your attendance at the walk thru is very
important.
The number next to the duty is the total number of
volunteers needed for the entire day and there is a
description of the work as well as how many per shift
is needed.
Since we will not have the actual schedule for this
day until two weeks prior to the competition, it is
very hard for me to determine the exact start time.
I am guessing the start time right now because of this
but imagine the start time will be early due to the
number of registered units.
Any and all changes will be communicated to you via
email so please be sure to list your email when you
sign up for your slots (I believe that is how this
works).
If you signed up for any committees during the winter
concert or at a parent meeting for guard, please sign
up again as I did not transfer your information in
to the sign up genius. Plus we have removed some committees
and clarified others so you may change your mind.

Thank you so much, in advance, for your continued support
in your students. Your efforts are important to them
as well as to the boosters.
Thank you everyone for your support.

Good morning
Parents and Students,
I hope you all survived your mid terms and enjoy
your three day weekend. I have a few important bits
of information
to provide everyone and reminders about upcoming
events.
I must first tell you the winter
guard performed in their first competition of the season yesterday
at Kettle Run High School. They did an excellent
job; placing 4th in their performance group. They missed
3rd place by seven tenths of a point. The
scores were all very close for the top 4 groups.
The girls should
be proud of themselves. We still have some work to
do but this is a great start to the season. Well
done ladies!!
I also want to thank everyone who came to support
the winter guard. It means a lot to them when there
are
spectators at the competition other than the pit
crew.
Later this week I will send out a Sign Up Genius
link for the indoor competition we are hosting on
March
24. As Mr. Carder stated at the December concert,
it is very important that we have as many volunteers
as
possible in order to make this even a succes for
us. As of this past Thursday we have 61 units registered.
This is a big undertaking, but as long as we have
parents
and students who want to help out, we will be able
to host an excellent show. I will explain signing
up to volunteer once the Sign Up Genius is complete.
