Dear band and orchestra students and parents,
I hope you enjoyed the beautiful fall weekend. Here are some important announcements and reminders.
1. You will have 2 options for fundraisers for students. These fundraisers are optional and the profit from the fundraisers will go toward each student's cost for the 2024 spring band/orchestra trip to Florida. I know it is a long way off, no commitments need to be made about 2024, but some people have appreciated the chance to get an early start. We have the Butter Braid pastry sale and a sub sale. Here are the forms for these two and a link to order Butterbraid online.
2. We talked about solo and ensemble festival in class last week. Here is more info at this link which you can also use to sign up. This is open to all HCHS band/orchestra students and it is a great way to grow as a musician. You may sign up for no more than 3 events or ensembles.
3. Here is the link to the HC Music Boosters Lesson Scholarship Form. If you have never had individual lessons on your instrument, it is a great way to grow as a musician and get the subtle tips that make you improve more rapidly. Have you thought about lessons or have already taken lessons, but the cost made you pause or decide not to do lessons? We want to help you thrive as a musician and taking lessons on your instrument is one of the best ways to do this. This is also a great way to prepare for solo and ensemble festival. Please fill this out this week and turn it in by Friday if you are interested.
4. All band members will perform in the pep band on Friday. All band and orchestra students are invited to stop by the band/orchestra room for pizza at 6:00 p.m. The pep band will play pregame music at 6:30 p.m.
5. We are looking forward to our retreat on October 14 and 15. We are still missing a few permission slips and if you haven't already paid, be sure to bring in your $10 this week. More details coming on the retreat soon.
Thanks!
Mr. VB
