Uniforms and Instruments - I will be sending a list of students who did not turn in their uniform and instruments to the front office for records tags and payment processing this week. If you did not turn in these items, they MUST be turned in by Monday.
Leadership Meeting and Camp - We will have a brief meeting this Monday for the new leadership team at 4pm. You may bring food and drinks to this meeting since we have rehearsal right afterwards. We also have a guest speaker coming in this Saturday from 9am-Noon for leadership camp. Make sure you make plans to attend. We are also planning a outing at Adventures Unlimited on Saturday, July 9th. More info to be given at our meeting on Monday.
Step-off Rehearsal - We will have our first rehearsal of the 2022-23 marching band Monday evening :-) We will be issuing lockers as well as any school-owned instruments as needed. I will also be going over the audition submission process for all winds. This is a required rehearsal for all new and returning band students. We will begin in the band room then head outside, weather permitting. Make sure you bring instruments and wear comfortable clothing.
Halftime Show Reveal - We are trying to have everything together to reveal the halftime show for next year Monday night at the end of the rehearsal. This is just an fyi.
Percussion Auditions Camp - The Percussion Audition Camp takes place this week. All students interested in joining the percussion section must attend each day. THIS DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT YOU WILL BE PLACED ON THE PERCUSSION LINE if you are a non-percussionist trying to switch sections. We will work with all King MS students on Thursday of this week since that is the night of your concert.
Wind Auditions - The band/chair placement auditions for winds are due this Saturday. There was a misprint on one of the calendars that was sent out saying they were due on the 28th. Again, band/chair placement auditions for winds are due this Saturday, May 21st to Flipgrid. CLICK HERE for instructions.
Jazz Auditions - The Jazz Band auditions are due on Flipgrid by Saturday, May 28th. Information and instructions can be found by CLICKING HERE.
Rookie Camp - Rookie Camp is just around the corner. All new students and leadership are required to attend. The dates and times are below. We will be outside each day so please plan accordingly in regards to temperatures. Students must attend all 4 days.
New Parent/Parent Info Meeting - We will have a new parent info meeting on Thursday, May 26th at 7:15 in the Band Hall. All New parents, please make plans to attend. Any returning parents are welcome to attend as well. We will be going over everything you need to know about the MHS Band and also answer any questions you may have. We also really want to meet all of you and help you in any way we can with this transition to MHS :-)
That is all for now. I hope you have a fantastic week!
