We have just been informed that the JV Football game for tonight has unfortunately been cancelled due to poor field conditions according to the coaches. They are planning for a make-up game at some point, however, we do not know any more information at this time. We will look into having all pep bands potentially perform together at the next freshmen/JV games in October. Again, we will give further information as it becomes available. Thank you for your understanding.

We just received the official word that the 9th Grade will not be playing this Thursday, however, the JV football team is still good to go. We have adjusted the itinerary accordingly. This is for all Pep Band A, Guard, and Percussion members.
5:15 - Call Time in new band T-shirts, Blue Jeans/Blue Jean Shorts, and Tennis Shoes at the track 6pm - Kickoff 8:30pmish - Dismiss - BRING YOUR OWN THERMUS! - Eat BEFORE call time if at all possible otherwise, eat after the game. Hello All,
Storm - I hope all of you have stayed safe through this event! We will have so many stories to tell each other when we return along with so many lessons. The biggest lesson of all is how much we are all here for each other no matter what the circumstance. I hope that you have seen the kindness of strangers around you and made new bonds through this time. If any of you are in need of anything, please let us know and we will help you. 2020 keeps throwing us obstacles, but any obstacle can be moved. So lets move this one aside, help each other out, and continue to press onward together! Because together We Are THE MIGHTY BLACK & GOLD! Game this Thursday - So far, the Freshmen/JV game for this Thursday is still a go. The full itinerary is listed below. Please understand that with this being our first of the Freshmen/JV games in which we have performed, the JV portion start time as well as the final dismissal time are approximations. The call time and 9th grade kickoff time are absolutes. Options for dinner that night: 1. Eat quickly before the call time 2. Bring money for concessions in between games 3. Eat after the game Also, please make sure you BRING YOUR OWN WATER THERMOS! We will wear the new band T-Shirts, Blue Jeans/Blue Jean Shorts, & Tennis Shoes. Shirts - We still have quite a few students who have not picked up their shirts because of not having the $12 paid towards their fare shares. Please make sure you get this in now. We will be wearing these shirts at all performances for the time being along with blue jeans/blue jean shorts. You can CLICK HERE for more info to get this money turned in. BPA Freezer - Last week, our freezer that we use to store the shish-ka-bobs among other things went down. We have received estimates, but the repairs are very costly. This freezer is VITAL to us as it allows us to store the shish-ka-bobs and the other concession stand items. Without the freezer, our tradition is in jeopardy. We have decided to ask our amazing community for help. We all know times are tough, but hoping with community support, we can continue this tradition. All funds raised will be used to purchase a new freezer. Please CLICK HERE to help contribute to the GoFundMe account that has been set up for this. That is all for now. I hope all of you have a wonderful week!

Hello All,
Meat Sticking - We will be holding our first meat sticking of the year during the scheduled marching band rehearsal this Tuesday. For all of the new folks, these meat stickings are where we put together our world famous shish-ka-bobs that are sold at football games and BPA events all over the area. It is the sell of these ka-bobs that allow the BPA to help sustain the band with various items like new instruments, band trucks, uniforms, etc. Students do receive volunteer hours for these meat stickings. Parents are welcome to attend, however, any volunteer must be school board approved. This will be in the cafeteria and we will be making modifications with how we normally hold these. You can see if you are on the school board approved list by clicking the following links: July 9th Meeting - CLICK HERE July 23rd Meeting - CLICK HERE July 30th Meeting - CLICK HERE Aug 20th Meeting - CLICK HERE Sept 10th Meeting - CLICK HERE BPA Freezer - Last week, our freezer that we use to store the shish-ka-bobs among other things went down.
