This Week in the Mighty Black & Gold

Hello All,

It's here! We have finally entered the competition season for the marching band.  Over the next month we will be pushing hard to clean and make ready the show for each of the 3 competitions beginning with our very own festival, the 2nd annual Blackwater Classic Marching Band Festival this Saturday.  It is very important that everyone makes sure you stay up to date with the schedule during this time as we will have many added events disbursed throughout.

Our new band truck has finally arrived! Come out and see it when you get a chance. This truck represents numerous hours of hard work by our BPA, countless shish kabob meat stickings and sales, 2 crawfish festivals and a marching band festival.  THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH.  It so so good to see the fruits of everyone's labor.  

Parents, this Friday is our first home game in a while and we need your help in the concession stand as well as chaperoning the students.  Please sign up using the links below:

Seniors, please make sure you turn in your senior script by this Wednesday.  Parents and those escorting the seniors need to be ready by the band section in the football stadium by 6:55.  You might want to plan to get there a little earlier than that to make sure you can park and buy your ticket.  

Parents, your show shirts have arrived! I will have them ready to pock up at the end of rehearsal tomorrow.  Please be patient as we get these to you.  Remember, they are $12 per shirt.  For those that ordered the gold chaperone shirts, those are here as well.  Please turn in your money and we will get these to you on Monday.

Did you know that the Blackwater Classic is this Saturday? Well, if you haven't heard, THE BLACKWATER CLASSIC IS THIS SATURDAY!!!! I am so excited to be hosting 12 bands from around the area.  I'm even more excited for these bands to see what awesome students and parents we have!  Parents, we need your help.  There are still plenty of slots available to volunteer.  The concession stand in particular has numerous spots available.  Please click the links below and sign-up.  This is a BPA incentive qualifying event.  You can work off some of the band fair share just by helping out.  Without your help, this event will not be a success.  All BC Volunteers need to plan to attend the volunteers meeting this Thursday 6:45-7:45 to do a walk through of the grounds.  You do not need to attend this if you are signed up for the concessions.

Hello All,

GREAT JOB to all at the Catholic game Friday night! Thank you to our wonderful parents for keeping our students healthy and hydrated throughout the night.  Thank you to our awesome students for presenting another great performance.  Thank you to everyone especially your patience in the bus issue.  I was very proud of how everyone listened to instructions and did exactly as we asked.  What a team we have! We received so many compliments for the halftime show as well as our spirit in the stands.  Even the folks at Waffle House had great things to say about the behavior of the students that ate their later that night :-)

So looking at the calendar this week, you will notice that we DO NOT have the meat sticking scheduled anymore.  Well, the effects of Irma are still being felt and the supplier where we get our meat is having difficulties with the shipping as it comes from South Florida.  I never would have thought this storm that gave us such perfect weather in our area would effect us so much with everything.

Good news with the guard uniforms.  Algy called us last week and said we should receive the uniforms by the 29th.  They are working with partial power and only half the amount of employees due to damage sustained to their houses, but they are trying their hardest to get them to us.  Still no word on Plumes.

This Friday we will be at Tate.  Because of Irma Tate had to reschedule their Homecoming to this Friday.  Their band director contacted us this week to let us know that the homecoming events will take up quite a bit of the halftime and gave us the option to perform before the game or post game.  Because we have a pep rally that day and we will already be rushed to load the truck and everything, we have decided to perform at post game before Tate performs.  Until further notice, we will perform after the game and then stay to watch Tate's show.  If this changes, we will let you know ASAP.  Kickoff is at 7pm Friday night. If you would like to help chaperone, please CLICK HERE.

I want to wish good luck to the 4 students that will be auditioning at Pace HS for the All-State Honor Band this Saturday:

Garrett Allen
Adeline Belova
Luke Justice
Raywood Miller

The Blackwater Classic is less than 2 weeks away.  There are still plenty of spots available for help.  Just click the links below and sign up.  Remember, this will only be as successful as the volunteers that help! We will have a BC volunteers meeting after rehearsal next Thursday the 28th.

Hello All,

Before I talk about this week, I wanna ask that you keep our friends down in South Florida in your thoughts and prayers as Irma finally makes her appearance there.  

I hope everyone has been able to relax and stayed safe during these few days of no school.  As of this morning, we WILL be back to normal schedule on Tuesday according to the Superintendent.  The band schedule for this week will resume on Tuesday as well.  Please make sure you look at the itineraries below closely below.  

I highly encourage all parents to attend the BPA meeting on Tuesday as this is the last BPA meeting before the Blackwater Classic on the 30th.  We will have a volunteers meeting before the classic, but we will go over a lot of needed info on Tuesday night.  You can still sign up to help using the links below:

If you can't make it to the game but still looking for a way to help out the band, come on and help out at the Bands on Blackwater Friday night in Milton.  The BPA needs help with concessions and any and all help is appreciated.

The annual Day of Percussion is this Saturday at Escambia HS.  This is required for all MHS percussion.  We will bus students and equipment to Escambia HS.  The itinerary is below.

Finally, I still haven't received any word about plumes or guard uniforms.  I will be calling this week to check on the status of both and will pass this along as soon as I hear something.  

I hope everyone has an excellent week!

​Since Santa Rosa County School District, along with all other state of Florida Public Schools, are closed on Friday and Monday due to the approaching hurricane, we will not have a football game at Ft. Walton Beach HS tomorrow night nor will we be having rehearsal on Monday night.  Please stay updated through our many communication tools (Facebook, Webpage, E-Mail, Remind App, etc.).  
 
If anyone would like to pick up their instrument tonight, we will keep the bandroom open until 9:00 pm.  
 
Thanks and stay safe.
