Dear Parents and Students, 

Please see the "this week" schedule.  We have a big week including vital practices to prepare for the half time show and important volunteer needs for the JV and Varsity games this Thursday and Friday.  We will perform pre-game and and half time this Friday, so if the students are not at practice they will be lost in the show.  Each student should have a three-ring binder, flip folder, and lyre at practice.  This is part of their grade. 

Parents!  We had a very difficult time in the concession stand at the last game because we did not have enough help.  Please see the links in the schedule below and volunteer for one of the spots.  We ask that each parent volunteer for a minimum of one game each.  If that were to happen, we would have more than enough help!  A band is only as good as it's band parent group...
