Smigell's Snow Day Edition:

Ok folks.. who would have thought we would be missing THIS much school? This obviously puts a bit of a crimp in our festival preperation, but we can only do what we can do. The big thing will be GETTING SOMETHING DONE during class tomorrow (today if you are reading this Friday morning) and not taking forever to get our heads screwed on straight. If we hit the ground running, we should be ok. Just be ready to go and don't be a distraction, be an asset!

couple reminders:

-If you are doing state solo and ensemble, we will need to scramble tomorrow morning to get the check in and send it out. The deadline has not passed and I would not be surprised if the extend it anyway.

-I just read the previous post and it looks like Bert already stole my thunder, which is fine. READ THE POST BELOW.

-WE HAVE A CONCERT NEXT WEDNESDAY... Wear something nice!

-Yes, we will be wearing our formal uniforms. IF you are new to the band program at the high school, that means black pants, a white formal shirt and a black bowtie. We will be quicky placing orders so we can look good for festival. A shirt with a bowtie runs about $18.00.

Festival is going to be feb 29th for Wind Ensemble (in the evening) and March first for Concert Band and Symphonic Band. Permission slips and other knick knacks soon to follow.



OK... that is about it. See you tomorrow!
