Sorry this is late but here is the info about tonight.
Help Needed:
Smigell needs some help cleaning and organizing the band room after school today. It should take a hr - two hrs max. Any help is appreciated!
Pep Band Tonight - Friday, September, 23rd
When: Tonight - Sept 23 @6:30pm - End (~9pm unless a shut out, weather, time outs, etc.)
Where: Pinckney HS - 10255 Dexter-Pinckney Rd, Pinckney, MI 48169 // Meeting at Visitor Gate
What (to wear / bring): Instrument, Flip-Folder of Music (Upperclassmen bring any extra music you have from the past yrs to help with the new members), W/E your instrument may need (extra reeds, valve oil, etc.) and you MUST wear this seasons' MB shirt (The Who!)
Pep Band is not required - it goes towards your band letter / medals and it is fun. ^.^ You meet Mr.Smigell at the gates at 6:30pm to get in free (for students - parents must pay ~$5 at the admission gate to enter). Mr. Smigell will be at the game the whole time. Students are responsible for their own transportation to and from Pinckney (ask if you need a ride - Smigell will help you find a ride with another student (don't be afraid to ask)). Be sure to bring home your instrument Friday after school - there will be no way to get into the band room Friday evening (and remember to bring them back to school on Monday). Parents are welcome to cheer on the band / football team.
First Band Concert:
Wednesday, October 19th at 7pm in the HHS / Rod Bushey Auditorium. The concert will show all the concert ensembles, including the marching band.
Dress Code: "Dress nicely". This means NO TSHIRTS, SWEATSHIRTS/PANTS, JEANS, OR TENNIS SHOES. Obviously this also means that all clothing needs to be school appropriate as well. Gentlemen - a nice shirt and tie with slacks or khakis will do. Ladies - a nice blouse or sweater with a skirt or slacks put you in the clear. You will be changing into your uniform during the concert after you perform if you are in marching band, so bring your marching uniform (the season's black, fitness / pj shorts, all black socks and all black shoes).
Report Time For All: 6:30pm - Show up already in your nice outfit. :)
Uniforms:
Students - please make sure you remove everything from your uniforms (i.e. cell phones, wallets, money, keys, etc.) before you hand them in. This will help with the turn in and will make everyone's hand-in smoother. If you do forget an item, please don't cut in line and return to the back of the line. Thanks!
