Two words....THANK YOU!! These two words are simple in their statement, but mean so much. Over the past two weeks the MB&G has been on display in so many ways. All of this culminating in the Band Christmas Festival and the Band Student Christmas party. Thank you to our students for your hard work in preparing and performing and helping set up and break down everything!! Thank you to the BPA for organizing the best Christmas Party for our deserving students. Thank you to all those who came and watched and enjoyed the concert. Thank you to the kind folks at Sweet Season Farms for letting us rent out your wonderful farm to our students! Simply, but not so simply THANK YOU!!! All of you are awesome people!!
Marching Band Pictures - This Thursday, we will be taking the marching band group and section pictures. Students will need to bring their full uniform including gauntlets to school and change into these for the pictures. Guard and managers will wear this year's band shirt and blue jeans. Leadership, please have section pic designs ready to go. Senior and leadership will need to stay behind to take their picture after the section pics are done. Once pics are completed, you are dismissed.
Band Parent Christmas Party - This Friday the BPA will be hosting the parent Christmas party at the Weaver's household. . All MHS band parents are invited. Bring a chair and enjoy some fellowship around the bonfire outside. The BPA will be providing ham & turkey, along with tea, water, lemonade, & coffee. We ask all guests to bring either a side or a dessert. Also, we are playing "Dirty Santa" at the party, so bring a gift (nice or gag gift) if you'd like to participate in this hilarious gift exchange. Please sign-up to attend this party by CLICKING HERE. This is for the adults only. Not students. The Address will be sent to those who sign up to attend in that link.
Lunches on Tuesday and Wednesday - The Jazz Band will be performing at lunches on Tuesday and Wednesday. More info is below. Please note that on those days, students will not be allowed to eat lunch in the band room.
This will be the final weekly update of 2020. We will return to school on January 4th, with the updates resuming on the 3rd in 2021. I hope all of you have a safe and enjoyable break. If you need anything at all over this break, just email us.
