Concert Week, Solo/Ensemble Festival, and Ham

Dear band and orchestra students and parents,

I hope you enjoyed the long weekend! Here are a few updates and reminders.

1. Our concert is this week Thursday at 7:30 pm. All students should be in the band/orchestra room by 7:00 pm.

2. Due to the concert and needing a full orchestra run thru we will have our symphonic orchestra rehearsal on Thursday morning and our jazz orchestra rehearsal on Friday morning. So we will switch these two rehearsal days. Times are as normal.

3. Solo and Ensemble Festival sign up starts this week!

4. Students can start to raise money for the band and orchestra spring 2018 trip (likely to Florida) by selling ham. Here is the form. All profits go toward the student's cost for the trip.
