This Week in the Mighty Black & Gold

Hello All, 

It's another fun-filled week in the Mighty Black & Gold.  I want to brag on our indoor groups for their performances this past Saturday at Escambia High School.  All three represented Milton very well with our percussion earning 1st place in their class, our JV Winterguard earning 5th place in their class, and the Varsity Winterguard earning 3rd place in their class.  They are all working so hard and I can see the improvement with every performance.  If you haven’t seen these groups, you will have three more chances for the competition season including this Saturday at Pace High School.  I encourage all of you to come out and see the hard work from our students and staff! 

As we get closer to the band trip and even the end of the year, it is getting to be crunch time to get fair share payments turned in.  There are SEVERAL individuals who have quite a bit of payments still owed to the band. Most of these payments were due back in December.  We have bills that are owed and we can't pay them without the fair share payments. These bills include transportation, uniform parts, and others spelled out in the band handbook. Some of you have marching band and indoor fees owed and some have the additional trip payments owed.  We have given you several opportunities to earn money through fundraisers including the current phone charger cord fundraiser found on our website.  Please look at your account on Charms office and make sure you are up to date.  At this point, unless you have fulfilled the BPA incentive, you should have a balance of $100 in your account left to pay. Please get this money in!
