3. This is a quick reminder about Wednesday and Band Extravaganza.
The HCHS symphonic and concert bands will do a combined rehearsal for our concert on Wednesday, March 19 after the PSAT. Since the 19th is a half day, we will have a pizza lunch in the band/orchestra room at 11:30 a.m. and then take a bus to the Jack H. Miller Center for the Musical Arts. If students drive themselves to school they can also drive to rehearsal that day. Seniors need to meet us at the JHM by 12:00 p.m. and should remember to bring their instrument/music. Students should be picked up at the Jack H. Miller after rehearsal at 1:15 p.m.Students should be at the Jack H. Miller Center for the Musical Arts in concert uniform for the concert by 6:45 p.m. in the evening on Wednesday the 19th.
The concert will be live streamed and here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?
The concert will be on Wednesday, March 19 at 7:00 p.m. at the Jack H. Miller Center for the Musical Arts. Due to capacity we recommend that we limit attendance to 4 guests per student participating in the concert.
