Pep Band (Marching Band) vs. Hartland: Friday, October 1st:
When: Friday Night - October 1st @ 6:30pm to approximately 9pm (unless a shut out, weather, time outs, etc.)
Where: Hartland High School - 10635 Dunham Rd. Hartland 48353 // Meeting at Visitors Gate
What (to wear / bring): Instrument, Flip-Folder of Music (Upperclassmen bring any extra music you have from the past years to help with the new members), things your instrument may need (extra reeds, valve oil, etc.) and you MUST wear this seasons' MB shirt (WE RISE).
- Pep Band is not required - it goes towards your band letter / medals and it is fun. ^.^ It's marching band but you don't play at half time or pre-game! You meet Mr.Smigell at the gates at 6:30pm to get in (students playing in pep band are free - parents/families/friends must pay ~$5 at the admission gate to enter). Mr. Smigell will be at the game the whole time.
- Students are responsible for their own transportation to and from Hartland HS (ask if you need a ride - Smigell will help you find a ride with another student (don't be afraid to ask)).
- Be sure to bring home your instrument Friday after school - there will be no way to get into the band room Friday evening (and remember to bring them back to school on Monday). Parents are welcome to cheer on the band / football team.
FALL BAND CONCERT - TUESDAY, OCTOBER 5TH AT 7 PM IN THE AUDITORIUM (Concert Band, Symphonic Band, Highlander Band, Wind Ensemble, Percussion Ensemble & Marching Band perform)
- Students report to the band room at 6:30 pm dressed in "casual dress" attire (this includes polo or other collared shirts, dress pants, dresses). No jeans, t-shirts or athletic wear!
- Students won't wear the black pants, white tuxedo shirt and bow tie until the holiday concert in December. We'll have information on where to get attire in mid-October.
- There is no cost to attend the concert. Reserved seating is also not needed for this concert.
- The marching band will be performing during the concert so help is needed with uniform distribution and collection. Click below for details and to sign up to help:
SENIOR NIGHT FOR MARCHING BAND - FRIDAY, OCTOBER 8TH
- Details posted this weekend (report times, etc.). We are working with athletics on specifics.
- We will let you know if MB seniors will be honored before the game OR during halftime......stay tuned!
NO PEP BAND FOR THE BRIGHTON AWAY FOOTBALL GAME ON OCTOBER 15TH!
- Because it's our fall break and there are scheduling conflicts, we will not be taking our pep band on the road for the Brighton football game on the 15th.
- However, there is a good chance, with our winning record so far, that Howell will be in the play-offs. Stay tuned for info on potential pep band opportunities past the regular football season.
