Hello All,

I hope this email finds you doing well.  We are so close to the end.  You Got This!! Please read through everything below.  Have a wonderful week!

Wind Auditions - This past Saturday, all wind players were to have submitted your MHS band audition.  Most everyone submitted correctly, however, we did have just a few that had difficulties.  Because of this I HAVE REOPENED THE FLIPGRID SUBMISSION WINDOW. This window will close once again on Tuesday, June 1st (Tomorrow).  If you did not submit or you were having difficulties, please submit by 11:59pm tomorrow.  CLICK HERE for audition information.

Jazz Auditions - Jazz Auditions are due by 11:59pm next Saturday, June 5th.  CLICK HERE for more information.  Please understand that the audition does not automatically get you in the Jazz Band.  I will fill this ensemble based on the auditions as well as numbers needed.  

Rookie Camp - This week is Rookie Camp!! All new students as well as sophomores are required to go to Rookie Camp this year.  Remember, all new students are required to participate in the marching band.  We will start at 4pm and end at 7pm each day.  Make sure you dress comfortably.  We will be outside the entire time.  CLICK HERE to watch a great video about what to wear and bring.  Don't forget a water thermos!

Uniform Fittings - All new students, Winds, Percussion, and All Guard, will be fitting for uniforms this Thursday the 3rd during Rookie Camp Times (4pm-7pm).  Any returning student that needs a new size or new uniform part will need to attend this fitting as well. 

New and Sophomore Parent Meeting - This Tuesday we will have a New and next year Sophomore band parent meeting in the band room at 7pm.  This is required for all New and sophomore parents.  Please plan to have at least one parent for each of these students in attendance.  Students may attend in addition.  We do not plan to live stream this meeting.  

Big Kahunas Trip - This Saturday is the Big Kahunas Band Trip.  Please look at the itinerary below.  Students must be at the band room no later than 9am.  Make sure you bring sunscreen and a bathing suit and a towel.  We will be getting a meal voucher for lunch for each student.  This is only for current members that signed up.

Hang in there! We only have less than 2 weeks left!

Band Awards Ceremony - The Charles "Bud" Bell Band Banquet is this Saturday in the MHS Gym at 6pm.  All current band members and family are welcome to attend.  Because of county mandates, the band, along with all other groups cannot serve food at these ceremonies.  We will still award the hard work of our students in person.  This will also still be a formal event, so dress up in your Sunday's best.  Students are asked to sit on the seats on the floor of the gym and guests are asked to sit in the bleachers on either side.  The stage will be set up along the far wall, opposite of the entrance.

Any uniform item not returned will be reported to the front office and a tag will be placed on student records until the item is returned or payment is received for that item.
