Freshman Band Announcements – Sept. 17

For the week of September 17

  1. What a great night the Freshmen had on Friday. From pizza to marching to the stadium to watching a winning football game, it was truly a great night. Thanks to all for helping make this experience a positive one for all our Freshmen. Special thanks to all the parents who helped with the pizza party, especially the cleanup.
  2. Many thanks to all for a HUGE Tag Day. Without the support of the students, parents and community, we could not provide the quality program for the students that we do. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!
  3. Chair placement auditions start on Monday, Sept 17. Students will play scales and a select piece from our band book. This will also be the students first playing grade of the quarter. We hope to be finished with the auditions by mid-week. Grades will be posted on line as soon as they are completed.
  4. Now that Freshman week is past, we focus on our Fall Concert, which is only 17 school days away, October 16, 2012 at 7:00 pm in the Freshman Auditorium. We’ve just begun working on our music and we’re looking forward to this performance. We hope all the students are practicing hard for both their chair placement audition and for the concert.

That’s it for this week.
