Hello All,
I would like to congratulate our Blackwater Beats Jazz Band, Black Gold Percussion Ensemble, and Winterguard for 3 outstanding performances this weekend! The Jazz band performed at the FBA Jazz MPA at PSC Friday night walking away with straight excellents across the board.   The percussion and winterguard both performed at the Pace indoor competition with the percussion ranking first in the class and the winterguard ranking 3rd.  We are all very proud of all of these wonderful students!

We are working on the itinerary for the symphonic, concert, and panther bands for MPA next Thursday.  We are planning to take panther band students so they can listen and experience MPA as well. Here is a tentative itinerary for Thursday, March 5th:

Finally, the Beats & Eats Festival is quickly approaching .  We are gathering vendor applications as we speak.  We need your help.  I have attached the vendor application for you to hand out.  You can also use the following link to our online vendor application: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfT2elhoePyqhIY_44Zt80Zz58Lwiex0WinGT4A1Hioy8TZFA/viewform

Hello All,
There are several new events on the calendar this week.  All adults going on the trip must attend the trip chaperone meeting this Tuesday at 6:30 in the band room.  Firehouse subs will be provided.  We will talk about your role with the students as well as explain the groups for New York amongst other items. 

The Basketball team won the district tournament the weekend and will be continuing on to the next stage.  Because of this, we will be having a pep rally on Thursday for them.  We will treat this like a football pep rally with call time being 1:40.  We will wear show shitrs and blue jeans.  

Finally, WE ARE STILL IN NEED OF FAIR SHARE PAYMENTS TO BE PAID!!! Yes, I can't believe this either, but we still have several outstanding balances that need to be up to date.  We CANNOT pay the bills for items given out and will be forced to cut back on events and items in the near future.  Thank you as alway to all of those who have participated in the fundraisers, helped with the BPA, and/or have kept your fair shares up to date! 

That is all for now.  I hope you have a wonderful week!

Hello All,

We are still in desperate need of all fair shares to be up to date. Believe-it-or-not, we still have bills from marching season that we have not been able to pay due to lack of fair shares being paid. Thank you to all that have made your accounts up to date. Please not that we have charged out the school-owned instrument rental fees of $50 as well. This is needed to be paid ASAP as well so we can pay the instrument repair bill from sending all marching and concert instruments off to get deep cleaned and fixed. Please take care of this now so we can keep proving your child and our awesome students with the best educational experience possible!

This week is a very busy week in the MB&G! While the 2 indoor groups have been competing for a couple weeks, we now kick off the Music Performance Assessment (MPA) season with the FBA Solo & Ensemble MPA at Escambia HS. I have attached the performance schedules for this as well as Jazz and Concert MPA's. For S&E, please make sure you arrive at least 30 minutes to and hour before your performance time so you can check in and warm-up. Also, make sure you dress accordingly for a performance. Something nice and "churchy" is fine. We will have itineraries ready for the other MPA's this week.

Make sure you look at the schedule carefully this week and next week as we have added sectionals and performances coming up as well as a mandatory Trip Chaperone Meeting next week on the 18th.

That is all for now. I hope you have a wonderful week!

Hello All,

I would like to congratulate our indoor percussion and winterguard for 2 outstanding first performances this weeked at Tate HS.  Both groups are off to a great start for the competiton season! Please come out and supprt all these awesome students at Choctaw HS this Saturday!

Mr. Weaver sent the following email out earlier this week about the band trip.  Please read:

Good evening!  We have a few extra spots on our 2020 Band Trip to Washington DC and New York City that we'd like to fill if any of our band students or parents are interested in attending.  The cost is $1,581 (quad occupancy), $1,730 (triple occupancy), $2,2025 (double occupancy), and $2,919 (single occupancy).  Of course, the full amount will need to be paid in the next few weeks prior to the trip.  If you'd like more information, please visit our band website at http://www.miltonhighschoolband.com/dcnew-york-trip-info.html .  This trip is being run by Group Travel Network in Orlando...so if you're interested, we'll need to get you in touch with them.  I know that this time of year is when some of us get our tax returns, so perhaps you'd be interested in attending or sending your child.  If you have questions OR if you're interested in attending, please contact me ASAP.    Thanks!
Gray Weaver

Finally, please be aware of the STATE MANDATED mental health classes that all students are required to go through over the next 8 days.  Again, this is a directive from the STATE not local authorities.  Beginning tomorrow, for all odd days, this class will be first thing in the mornings.  For all even days, this class will at the end of the school day, 2:24-3:24.  Students will still go to all classes on a modified schedule.  

That is all for now.  I hope you have a fantastic week!
