Hello All,
WHAT A BAND! That's all I can say. Outstanding job to all of our students in the Mighty Black & Gold Marching Band this past Saturday at the FBA Marching MPA. A Superior performance on the field earned our students straight SUPERIOR ratings! We cannot be more proud of all of you in our second week of competition. Great job band! Also, thank you so much to all of our parents for helping us out this weekend as well. Now we are in our final week of competition. I have attached a copy of the complete performance and the itinerary is below. Please note that we will not be rehearsing Saturday morning, however, we will be meeting at 1:30 to stretch and go over any last minute details for the day. Please make sure you eat lunch BEFORE we leave and bring money for concessions when we get there. The Santa Rosa County Marching Band Exhibition this year has been canceled. Right now, there are no plans to reschedule this event. In a nutshell, the directors met after FBA and a few of them expressed how much they needed to spend that night practicing for the various performances this Saturday. This weekend the BPA will be selling concessions at the Boggy Bayou Mullet Festival in Niceville. This is a huge 3 day event and lots of help is needed. If you would like to help out, please sign-up using the links below: Friday CLICK HERE Saturday CLICK HERE Sunday CLICK HERE Mark your calendars for the annual "Bring the Heat" Battle of the Bands at Whataburger in Pace next Monday at 6:30pm. We need to get as many people there as possible as attendance gives us points. We still do not know who will be eating the jalapenos, but I do know you will see some very familiar faces. Finally, Seniors next Friday is Band/ROTC Senior night. This is also the Pace vs Milton game. I will be handing you a form this week to fill out and turn in. Please stat getting in touch with any family you would like to join you on the field and make sure they can make it. Yes, they will need to purchase a ticket for the game. That is all for now. I hope you have a great week!

Hello All,
WOW is all I can say about this weekend! The Mighty Black & Gold family really came together in an overwhelmingly positive way on Saturday at the 3rd annual Blackwater Classic. I have heard nothing but good things about the students, volunteers, the hospitality, and really the overall experience from everyone in attendance. We cannot express to you how proud we are thankful to all of our performers and volunteers for your part in making this another successful festival! If you missed the performance, you can watch it on our YouTube page. I gotta say, this was definitely the best performance of this show so far. Looking ahead to the 2nd week of competition, we will be performing at Ft. Walton Beach this Saturday for the Florida Bandmasters Association Marching Music Performance Assessment. This is the most important performance of marching season! I have attached the full schedule for FBA and our itinerary is below. Tickets are $10-$12 at the gate. Parents, if you would like to chaperone for this, please CLICK HERE. Please make sure you keep an eye on the tropics this week. There is a storm in the gulf that is looking like it will hit at or near our area. The district will make the call for classes on those days as needed so keep an eye on the news around this week. That is all for now. I hope all of you have an amazing week!

Hello All,
Well, here we are! Competition season! We are entering the most important three weeks for the Mighty Black & Gold Marching Band. Over the next 3 Saturdays we will perform for numerous bands in competition and for ratings. We kick this season off with the 3rd Annual Blackwater Classic, but more about that in a bit. First, WE WILL BE TAKING THE FULL MARCHING BAND AND SECTION PICTURES ON MONDAY, OCTOBER 1ST AT 5PM! Please do not forget your uniform if you are planning to stick around after school. You do not need helmets but you will need everything else. Make sure you bring a change of clothes for rehearsal immediately following. Because the band has worked so hard over the past several weeks and we finally have the whole show on the field, we decided to go ahead and cancel the Tuesday rehearsal for this week. There is a possibility of having a rehearsal next Tuesday, the week of FBA, depending on what happens this week. They earned it! This Friday is an away game at Crestview High School. Since it is their Homecoming, we will be performing at PREGAME at around 6:15 to 6:30. Please make sure you plan accordingly. The rest of the itinerary is below.There is one more spot available to chaperone. If you would like to sign-up, CLICK HERE So, this Saturday is the Blackwater Classic. The itinerary for this is below. During the lunch break, we are allowing students to leave campus to eat and nap accordingly. The BPA is offering to provide lunch for any student that decides to stay on campus and eat. The sign-up sheet is in the front of the band room. Leadership will have various meet times as they are in charge of meeting the bands and getting them where they need to go on campus. Parents, We still need your help please!! There are several places that still need covering, most notably the concessions and the donation of items for the hospitality room. Sign-ups for these can be found below. We will have a mandatory volunteers walk-through this Thursday at 6:45. This is not for the concessions workers. Please make plans to be there: BC Parent Volunteers - CLICK HERE BC Concessions Volunteers - CLICK HERE Hospitality Room Donations - CLICK HERE THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN WITHOUT YOUR HELP! The Itineraries for FBA as well as the Emerald Coast Marching Band Competition have also been posted on the calendar. I will be sending more info as far as performance line-up and pricing later. That is all for now. I hope you have an extraordinary week!

We CAN NOT do this without you! PLEASE sign-up by CLICKING HERE asap. The items listed are just suggestions, you may bring ANY food item you wish to donate. Any/all are appreciated. Just click on Other, then fill in what you are bringing. If possible, please have all donated items in the culinary arts room by 12:00 Noon on Sat. Oct. 6th. Thank you is an understatement, but is genuinely meant. We can do this, meaning you and our hospitality team, together. ❤😀 Carolyn Rogers Hospitality Coordinator rogerscj49@gmail.com 850-281-5243 I just found out this morning that there is a make-up football game for the freshmen on Tuesday in the stadium and we will not be able to take our picture.
