WOW!! What a concert! Fantastic job to all of our students for your performance at the spring concert Friday night! I've been blessed to be at Milton for six years and I am always amazed at the talent that our students possess and display at this concert. You are really the hardest working students at Milton High School. Thank you for your hard work this year and we couldn't be more proud of all of you!
We are now in band banquet preparation mode. Over the next two weeks, we will be collecting various forms, interviewing for next year's leadership, listening to speeches, auditioning drum majors, selling tickets for the banquet, and decorating the gym. Please make you look at the calendar to make sure everything is turned in on time. We will be giving lots of info about the banquet at the BPA meeting on Tuesday night. I highly encourage you to attend the meeting!
We will be hosting band day this Thursday during school. This is where Hobbs, King, and Avalon MS band students come and experience the Mighty Black & Gold for the first time. We will also get an idea of next year's numbers at the end of the day. All of our groups, minus panther band, colorguard, and indoor percussion, will perform in the band room for these students.
We will begin collecting uniforms the monday after this week. Uniform parts to be turned in are sashes, jackets, and gauntlets. If you borrowed any other uniform part, i.e. shoes, bibbers, helmets, you will need to turn these in as well. Please make sure you clean the jackets and bibbers before you return them. Cleaning instructions can be found in the band handbook. Any uniform item not returned will result in a tag on the student's record until the item is returned or paid for. School-owned instruments will be returned and rechecked-out the following week.
Finally, NEXT YEAR'S HALFTIME SHOW ..............................................................................................................................................
