Hello band and orchestra students and parents,
I hope you are doing well! Happy homecoming week!
1. Just a quick note that the band and orchestra retreat is on October 14 and 15. Here is the retreat info sheet. The cabin sign up is on the wall in the band/orchestra room. Please turn in the consent form and $10 in to the envelope hanging on Mr. VB's office door. A special thanks to donors for helping us keep this cost low so you can enjoy this fun together!
2. Parents, we are in need of chaperons for the retreat on October 14/15. Please reply to this email if you can help out.
3. On October 14 we will be taking pictures during class for band students and at 7:00 a.m. for orchestra (all strings, woodwind, brass, and percussion). Students are being fitted for their uniforms during class. Band and orchestra guys will need black dress shoes and black socks for their tuxedo and girls will need appropriate footwear for their long black dresses. The shoes/socks are not provided by HCHS.
4. I didn't send out the reminder on Friday, so I will extend the deadline to today. This is your last chance to fill out the honors symphonic band or honors orchestra form and also to fill out the schedule verification form. These were #3 and #6 in the last blog post.
5. We will be kicking off a Butterbraid pastry and sub sale on Friday, Sept. 30. It is an optional fundraiser for anyone who wants to start raising a little money for the 2024 Florida trip. Yes, we are starting some preliminary planning for HCHS bands and orchestras for a trip in end of March/early April of 2024 to perform in Florida. :)
6. We would love to have a couple volunteers to help with sub distribution Oct. 24 1:30 to 3:15 p.m. and with Butterbraid distribution on Oct. 27 1:30 to 3:15 p.m.
Thank you!
Scott
