Dear Band Member,

I hope your summer has gone well.  Mine, like yours, has gone way too fast.  The schedule for summer band is listed below.  Please be aware that these are mandatory practices.  Jobs and vacations are not excusable absences.  If you remember, you were reminded of this before school let out in May.  This year is the year we are allowed to advance from Region to Area and even to State!  Because of this we want to get in as many practices before school as possible!!!  Inform your employers as soon as possible of this schedule.  Athletic practices will not conflict with ours.  If you know of someone who was planning on being in band that I did not know about, please pass along the following schedule.  Please contact me if you have questions or cannot make a practice.

We are looking forward to a great school year!!!
