Dear Parents of Band members,
ALSO - there are 2 crazy early morning practices coming up1st - Tuesday, September 4th from 6:45 - 7:45 am
As you know the new year has kicked off and we are
going to hit the ground running. Our first parade of the year is usually at the
end of September however, they changed the date on us again. Sorry for the
short notice but we really need to move quickly to be ready on time. Updated
versions the band calendar are sent out monthly throughout the year. Below are a few upcoming
events.
1. VERY
IMPORTANT - Mandatory meeting for band parents and
students. This is our only scheduled uniform fitting for the year.
Where: Band Room
When: Thursday, September 6,
2012. Those involved in the sports activity that day are requested
to skip any after-game activities and head straight to
Merced at the earliest possiblity (it's about a 30 minute drive from
Livingston).
Time: 6:30
PM
Who: All marching
band member(s) and at least one parent, guardian or
adult representative must attend.
