Our new Marching Band Trailer, donated by the Lakota West Upbeat Club, is parked outside the band room!   Pictures on the daily announcements.  We will be using the trailer as is this year to move props and plan to wrap it and build it out before next year as the marching band schedule and weather allow.

 

Volunteers for Concert Uniform Fitting Days:  We need a few helpers with concert band uniform fitting days, Sept. 16 & 17. You can sign up for one or both days. No experience necessary. Students will be trying on their uniforms and we’ll be making sure that they fit. We will be using rooms off of the band room.

Wednesday, September 16, 10:45 – 2:40 

Thursday, September 17, 9:50 – 2:40
 
Please CLICK HERE to sign up to volunteer.  If you have any questions, please contact Gretchen Santucci  at (513) 885-8154.
Hemmers needed!:  After we fit concert band uniforms this week, we’ll no doubt be in need of volunteers to hem pants. If you can help out with this task, please CLICK HERE to sign up and we’ll be in touch.

Mark your calendars for Senior Night on October 2nd!  Senior parents, you are invited to come to the Auditorium before the game, pin your son or daughter’s flower on, and get your picture taken together!
