Pictures from Washington Trip
Good morning! I hope you recovered easily from our long journey to/from DC last week.
Wanted to provide you with an opportunity to get professional quality pictures from our trip. Throughout the trip, you probably noticed Jeremy Flowers, father of Logan, taking pictures non-stop. You now have the opportunity to purchase a DVD of all of the pictures, or individual pictures printed in professional quality.
If you are interested, please download the attached document, fill it out, and return it with the correct amount of money to the lock boxes in the instrumental/vocal classrooms.
This needs to be done by THIS Thursday, April 2nd.
Jeremy will be at the Band/Orchestra Concert that evening if you have further questions.
In addition, our videographer, Kegun Selley, will be selling his DVD soon. More info to follow.
Titan Pride Update

NOTE: Attendance by students and parents at the fundraiser meeting is CRUCIAL to the success of the fundraiser. This is why I scheduled it on a night where we are all already at school for the concert. For every parent in attendance, the band will be given $5 (up to $500), so thank you in advance for making this evening a priority.
Wednesday, April 8th is State Large Ensemble Contest for the Concert Band. Performance time is 3:00pm. This means students MUST bring their concert uniform to school with them on Wednesday, April 8th. They can hang it up in the band room before school.
Friday, April 11th is State Large Ensemble Contest for the Symphonic Band. Performance time is 3:30pm. This means students MUST bring their concert uniform to school with them on Friday, April 11th. They can hang it up in the band room before school.
Have a great week!
