Hello All,
​
WELCOME TO BANDTOBER! Over the next 3 weeks, the marching band will be entering the competition season of marching season....aka Bandtober.  For weeks and months our students have been working hard to put together the halftime show and performing at football games.  The next 3 Saturdays are band football games.  The competitions are performances just for all of the wonderful students around the region.  Please make sure you look at the schedule carefully along with all itineraries.  We will also be performing at Pace HS for the Santa Rosa County Marching Band Exhibition. Don't' blink.  Marching season will be over in a flash.  YOU GOT THIS!! We are so proud of you for pushing through!

Blackwater Classic - Parents, WE NEED YOUR HELP with the Blackwater Classic.  This is our home marching band festival on October 7th.  We need as many hands on deck for this as possible.  There are SEVERAL open spots on the parent volunteer sign-up.  This competition will not be a success without your help.  We are aware of someone signing up fake names on the list and have taken steps with Charms and with the County IT department to rectify that.  Please CLICK HERE to sign up.  If locations are full with those folks names, you can email or call Nicole Humber at 662-706-0003 [email protected] or Arlene Wires at 850-910-5636 [email protected] for more info.  I want to thank our committee for working hard on this event.

Band Senior Night - Friday, October 13th is the Band & ROTC senior night.  Seniors, make sure you turned in your scripts for this by this Wednesday.
