Well that was fast! Spring Break is over and I hope everyone got to do some special things over the break or at least got some rest. Now We are in the homestretch for the end of the year. That is hard to believe. Please make sure you keep an eye on the calendar as there are several events happening for this last nine weeks.
The Crawfish festival is next Saturday 10am-8pm. This is a huge event for the Band Parent Association and WE NEED YOUR HELP. There are several volunteer opportunities in that we need folks to sign up for. If you are still in need of fulfilling your BPA incentive, this is the perfect event to do so. Please click HERE to sign up for one of the area. All volunteers will need to come to the Crawfish Festival volunteers meeting on Thursday, April 6th at 6pm. We also need help with items in the hospitality room. These items are specified on the form. Please click HERE to fill out the form.
Seniors, we will beginning making plans soon for the senior signing day. This event was started last year and is meant to celebrate those seniors who have earned a scholarship in music in college or will continue to play in one of the bands in college. This is not just for those who are going into music, but those who are simply going to continue playing their instrument in a band in college. We will have representatives from that college come in and give you a promissory note to sign for that college. It's time to start making those decisions. We will set a deadline and a date for the signing day.
This Saturday is the last competition of the indoor season. Circuit championships will be held at Tate High School and will involve all three of our indoor groups. The performance times are listed below. This will be your last chance to see these students' hard work in competition. They will perform at the Spring concert but this will be a totally different atmosphere.
Finally, students is there a certain show you have always wanted to try for marching band? Well here's your chance to pitch your idea. I am currently working on next year's show and have a few different idea that I am working with . I always love to hear your ideas during this process. This does not meant we will go with that idea, but the possibility is there. In any case, yes we are already getting ready for next year. WOW! Too fast right?Have a fantastic week!
