I can't begin to list the many parents that donated, coordinated the food, helped by walking in the parade, talked with 8th grade parents, worked the uniforms with Bert Schomberger before and afterward! Thank you, your kids appreciate and notice! It can get crazy and we love it!

Speaking of uniforms, if you haven't received a copy of the letter that details the fundraiser between Snedicors and the band boosters please contact myself or Bert(517.546.1993/magefire@hughes.net)to find out the details. It is possible that this information will be mailed within a week to your home. MB students, after selling the first book will be entitled to cleanings, repairs etc. of their uniform along with submitting the profits to their student account. Non marching band students can also benefit after the sale of the first book. Student accounts can be applied to the New York trip or music related needs only. Details to follow.

Spiritwear, whether band booster Tshirts, flannel bottoms and hoodies are available too. We have a few orders and will be placing it shortly. Parents, yes you are a band booster member as a band parent. We don't ask for much just to support you child in the program, so order a shirt! The cost is not for profit. The flannel bottoms can be personalized along with the hoodie and there will be samples at the next band booster meeting. Even though you may have placed an order of the spiritwear at orientation or wish to purchase now please contact me ASAP! Turnaround time is quick! great gifts for your kids or yourself.

Also, if any parent wants to see a Kodak moment? Get to the loading dock after a win and watch how proud the band is with their hats on backwards and then allowed to dance to their own music. Awesome! great job with the craziness yesterday Mr. Smigell! that was lots of work on your part!
