Band room disaster and reopening plea!



Hi everybody,



First of all, thanks to everyone who came out to collage.  It went really well, and was a very special night for the kids and I as we sent Mr. Bushey off.  As always, I am super proud of the way our kids performed and conducted themselves!

But now the bad news: (READ THE POST BELOW TO FOR CONTACT NUMBER)


Same day as Collage (yesterday, 4/28/2016), the roof over the band room leaked and flooded two rooms in the band complex. The uniform room and the booster room.  The instrument storage room also had a leak but it was minor.  Lots of damage to the cabinets storing all the uniforms and booster items, a fair amount of damage to some of the uniforms and booster items themselves.  Special thanks to Ms. Miller, Ms. Rushlow, Ms. Smathers, Connor Norton, and anyone else that responded quickly along with the kids (and their epic drive to help the mothership!).  The band room is closed today and we are going to try and reopen on Monday.


WE NEED YOUR HELP!! ANY PARENTS OR STUDENTS WILLING PLEASE SHOW UP AT 7AM IN THE BAND ROOM ON MONDAY!  WE ARE GOING TO DO OUR BEST TO PUT THE ROOM BACK TOGETHER AND GET THE PROGRAM MOVING AGAIN.  WE ALSO SHOULD HAVE AN IDEA WHERE TO PUT UNIFORMS UNTIL THE SITUATION IS REPAIRED AND STABLE.


OK that's all I have.  Have a good weekend and get ready to hit the ground running again on Monday!
