First Band Concert - Tuesday, October 15th
First band concert is Tuesday, October 15th at 7pm in the HHS / Rod Bushey Auditorium. Report Time For All: 6:30pm - Show up already in your nice outfit. :) The concert will show all the concert ensembles, including the marching band.
Dress Code: "Dress nicely". This means NO T-SHIRTS, SWEATSHIRTS/PANTS, JEANS, OR TENNIS SHOES. 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. Marching band members - you will be changing into your uniform during the concert after you perform, so bring your marching uniform (the season's black, fitness / shorts, all black socks and all black shoes).

Basket Raffle - Tuesday, Oct. 15th
Thank you Lisa Grager for organizing what promises to be another great basket raffle! This is the biggest fundraiser for the band boosters and helps fund band needs like concert jackets/vests and band camp scholarships. Tickets will go on sale at 6:00 in the lobby. They are $1.00 each, 6 for $5.00 or arm length for $10.00. To speed things along during the concert we have you write your name on the back of the ticket or stick an address label on if you have them VS. looking for the matching ticket number. Winners can pick up their prize after the last performance.
Baskets can be delivered to the Band Room any time. We need them there by 4:30 the night of the concert so we can get them displayed. Those of you who volunteered to help, we start at 4:30 in the Band Room getting tables and the baskets to the lobby, if you can't make it at 4:30 that's OK come later. It takes us until 6:00 to set up and then we start ticket sales until the concert begins. We also need some help after the concert to get all the tables back to the band room after baskets are picked up. On behalf of the Band Boosters - Thank you for your support 🙂
