Well, I hope everyone enjoyed their first week of school. It's crazy how quickly it went by and it will only move faster.
We will have our first football game of the year this Friday at Home vs Washington HS. The itinerary is below. We will be wearing our summer performance uniforms for the game along with the pep rally. Remember for winds and percussion, this is your polo shirts, black shorts, mostly white shoes, and white socks. For those that still have not received your polos, no worries, you will get them this week. No gym short, workout shorts, or basketball shorts. Black jean shorts, black cargo shorts, or black flat front shorts are okay. Guard will wear the same type of black shorts and shoes you wore are the preview show. We do have your personalized shirts for you to wear! We will hand these out on Monday.
Parents, WE NEED YOUR HELP at the game this Friday. There are two great opportunities to volunteer at the game. If you have gone through the chaperone training and turned in the Santa Rosa County volunteer form, you are eligible to chaperone at any band event. Just click the link below and Tina Beyers or Sandy Kennedy will give you a call with further details and to let you know if you are a go for this Friday. This is not a part of the BPA incentive.

We also need help in the concession stand. This is a great opportunity to meet new people, make new friends, and simply have fun-filled time cooking and serving! This is a BPA incentive event so you can work $25 off of the fair share.

Students, if you are interested in auditioning for the All-State band this year, there is a really great audition clinic being held at PSC in Pensacola this Saturday. The cost is $10. This is not required but encouraged. More info can be found by clicking HERE.
Congratulations to Katie Kilgore for winning the T-shirt design! I have attached the scanned copy of her drawing. As soon as we get the digital design from Paradise Screen printing, I will send out the order form for everyone to order their shirts. Students automatically receive shirts as part of their uniform.
Finally, do to circumstances beyond our control the eclipse for this Monday has been cancelled! I do apologize for any inconveniences that this may cause in scheduling. We will reschedule this event for April 8th, 2024. ;-)
Have an amazing week!
