Shish Kabob Meat Sticking - On Monday, we will have our first mass shish kabob meat sticking. We will begin with concert band at 1:30, then symphonic band during 6th period. All students need to report to the cafeteria AFTER school lets out. We need all hands on deck for this so we can get it done quickly and correctly. Parents who plan on volunteering for the student meat sticking who will be there from 1:30-3:30 need to check into the front office and then come to the cafeteria. We will have all of the supplies ready to go at 1:30.
Rehearsal this week - As a reminder, this Tuesday is the only marching band rehearsal this week because of the game. We will go 6pm-9pm for this rehearsal.
Tri-M Interest Meeting - If you are interested in being part of the Tri-M Music Honor Society, please attend the meeting after school on Wednesday. All returning members are required to attend.
Pep Rally - This Thursday is the first MHS pep rally of the year! We will be on an alternate class schedule that day. Students will need to meet in the band room at 1:40 to prepare. Please wear a band shirt, or even better, I encourage everyone to dress in the theme. Remember, we bring the party – so dress the part!
Thursday Game - This Thursday is a home football game. See the itinerary below. The uniform we will wear (summer or full) is TBA – please wait for this to be confirmed. Call time is 6:00 and kickoff is 7:30pm.
BPA Dinner for Students Thursday - The BPA will be feeding all the band students on Thursday before the game at the Band concession stand. We will have food available from 3:45-5:00 pm. We will have the following: Olive Garden Chicken Pasta, Salad- iceberg and spinach, Hawaiian Rolls, Hamburger/Cheeseburger, Hot dog, Chips, cookies, drinks
BPA Concessions Help - There are still a few spots available for any band parent that would like to volunteer. Please see the sign-up on the PHS event on CutTime.
Show Shirt Designs - It is time to start the show shirt designs for this year. Each year, we take student-made submissions for the halftime show shirts. These designs are voted on by all band students, then sent to be professionally touched up and placed on black shirts. Here are some requirements for these designs:
- Show title - Teenage Wasteland
- Year - 2024-25
- Your name on the back page of design
- Everything else is up to you
That is all for now. I hope you have a great week!
