Homecoming Week - HAPPY HOMECOMING. This week there are lots of events and dress-up days to enjoy each day. I encourage everyone to take part and get into the spirit of homecoming. The MB&G will be playing a huge part as always, especially the last three days this week. Here is a rundown of the uniforms for the week:
Wed - Summer Uniform for Escapades
Thurs - Bring formal uniform to school for pep rally, change during 5th period
Fri - Summer Uniform for Parade, Formal Uniform for game.
TR Jackson Parade - Tuesday is the TR Jackson Storybook parade. After much thought, we will only be taking the leadership team to this because of the VERY tight quarters at the school. We usually only take the leadership team for this parade anyway. There will not be enough room to march through the hallways at TR Jackson if the whole band is there. Leadership, please see itinerary below.
Escapades - This Wednesday is Escapades. This is the after school pep rally in the gym. All of the class skits will be performed and the HC court will be introduced. Parents are invited to come out and watch. The itinerary is below. Call time is 5:30 in summer uniform.
Pep Rally Thursday - Just a note that we will be in full uniform minus helmets for the pep rally on Thursday. Please make sure you bring your uniform to school on that day. You may leave it on the hangers afterwards for the game on Friday.
HC Parade - We will meet at 9am in the band room for the HC parade then bus to King MS in rotation on 2 buses. The parade will kickoff around 10:30. Students will be dismissed at the end. Buses will run at Noon. See itinerary below.
HOME Game vs Godby HS - This Friday is our final game of the season. See itinerary below. If we receive our new uniforms this week, we may adjust the call time. Take note that we will be performing our halftime show at POST GAME before we march back to the band room. We will also be giving a special performance for the students of Hobbs MS at the practice field before the game. We will also be inviting all of our Band Alumni to join us in the stands at the 2nd half of the game.
BPA Concessions at Game - The BPA needs help with the concessions for the game. This is your last chance to work a game and earn the BPA incentive. Please CLICK HERE to sign-up.
New Uniforms - We still have an estimated delivery of this week for our uniforms. We are hoping to be able to have these for the game this Friday. If we do indeed receive them, we may be adjusting the call time on Friday to 4:30 instead of 5:30. We will let you know if and when this will happen. Cross your fingers!
BPA Sweet Seasons - This weekend is the last of the sweet season BPA concession sales. If any student would like to sign up to help, you will receive volunteer hours and lots of thanks! Parents, please don't miss out on this last opportunity to help at this event. Everyone can sign up using the links below:

All-County Auditions - All County Auditions will take place at MHS on Thursday, November 9th. We will be posting a signup sheet for students to help out at various things for that evening. The biggest area of need is for Proctoring each room. Students may receive volunteer hours for this. More info to be given in class. We will also be posting an audition schedule this week.
Veterans Day Parade - The Veterans Day parade will be on Saturday, November 11th. Just giving everyone a heads up for this. We will be meeting in the band room at 8am on that day, then block up with Pace HS out front. The parade will start at 9:30 and goes from MHS to Veterans Memorial in downtown Milton. Students will need to secure a ride from Veterans Memorial. We should be finished up by 10:30am.
That is all for now. I hope all of you have a wonderful Homecoming Week!
