FBA Concert MPA - Here we are! We are in the final week of FBA MPA season. This Friday is the FBA Concert MPA performances for the Concert and Symphonic Bands at Ft. Walton Beach HS. The full itinerary is below. We will wear our uniforms minus gauntlets, gloves, and helmets. Make sure you bring your bibbers, BLACK socks, and Bando shoes. Please note that we will be feeding the bands instead of taking students to the normal restaurants this time because of the performance times. The Concert Band performs at 6pm and the Symphonic Band at 8pm. This concert is FREE. come on out and support our students.
Indoor Groups - Congratulations to the Winterguard and Black Gold Percussion Ensemble for 2 outstanding performances this past Saturday at Choctaw HS . The next performance will also be the last one for these groups for the competitions season. This will be on April 6th at Tate HS. Make plans now to come out and see these wonderful students!
Lumpia FR - The lumpia FR is due this Wednesday by the end of school. All order forms and money MUST be turned in on this day. CLICK HERE for a copy of the lumpia form to this email.
Band/Indoor Fees - We need all band and indoor fees paid in full ASAP. I will be sending statements out through email this week. You can bring in cash or check and put in the moneybox in front of the band office or pay online by CLICKING HERE.
Band Trip - Believe it or not, we only have 15 days till we set sail! If you have not done so already, you need to get an official birth certificate and a government ID card. Do this now or you will run the risk of not being able to board the boat. We will have one final trip meeting on Monday the 11th at 6:30pm. This is a required meeting for all participants. Please make plans to attend. We will be going over all last minute information for the trip. If you missed the other meetings, you can access all of the information on our trip page by CLICKING HERE.
That is all for now. I hope you have a wonderful week!
