Our LAST BLOG POST

 Highlander Marching Band Members!

This marks our final blog or official Facebook post, as we transition directly into the BandApp for communications. The app is free, as is creating a profile - all students and parents should add themselves via this link: https://band.us/n/adaa73eaw2lep

Please do this now, as important information will begin circulating through the BandApp only! This app allows us to create folders with files, post applicable media, share information, and continue sectional communications within the app's secure chat rooms. It is designed for groups like us!

Marching Band Tomorrow

Reminder that our first rehearsal at school together is tomorrow!

Uniform fittings A-K: 5:45-6:30pm in uniform/band room

Leadership Team: 6:00pm in band room

Full band: 6:30-8:30pm on stadium field

Everybody needs:

  • All drill charts - we will be blocking the Closer! Have your spot highlighted
  • Chips
  • All music in folder, lyre
  • Instrument
  • Water bottle full and ready to go
  • Close-toed athletic shoes (no crocs, flip flops, etc.)
At the end of our rehearsal, our Boosters will pass out our first fundraiser for the season! 

Additionally, please check with your families today to see if you are able to attend a Spartan Marching Band rehearsal on Thursday, October 13th. It will take place after school, transportation provided. We will watch the band rehearse in East Lansing and then have dinner in Brody Hall Cafeteria (cost TBD). Tomorrow we will take an interest number so that we order the correct number of busses. Thank you!
