Hello all, it's Smigell, with some important info for you all:

#1: THERE IS A CONCERT FOR EVERYONE IN THE PROGRAM (Meaning that it is for a grade)ON DECEMBER 12, 2006 AT 7:00 PM!!! IT IS FREE TO THE PUBLIC, SO INVITE EVERYONE IN THE WORLD!!!

#2: Make sure to visit WWW.HOWELLHIGHLANDERBANDS.ORG It is the official band site now. It has all kinds of cool features and it even has a link to this blog (in fact, Mr. Sequin, the adminsitrator of the site, has requested that you come to this blog THROUGH the link on the other page. It has something to do with advertising value).

#3: For this concert we will be wearing our official uniforms. Everyone in the program wears a white formal shirt in addition to either black trousers or skirts on the bottom (we will specify in each class). However, EVERYONE needs to have the white formal shirt and bowtie. THIS FRIDAY during 1st hour, a gentleman from BRIGHTON TUX SHOP will be coming to take orders and fit people for shirts. First year band students and anyone in need of a new shirt need to show up for first hour on Friday so they get the shirt in time. The price is always somewhere around $20.00 for the shirt and the bowtie.
