WE NEED HELP FOR MEMORIAL DAY PARADE & PICNIC! TIME CHANGE! SUMMER UNIFORM!

 MEMORIAL DAY PARADE (Marching Band) - MONDAY 5/30

We hope you can join us for the final band performance of the school year as our marching band performs in the Memorial Day parade in Howell.  

  • Report time for students is 8:45 A.M. - TIME CHANGE from original blog post!!! and the parade starts at 10 a.m. at the library.  The parade ends with a ceremony at Thompson Lake Cemetery.  Students will be bussed to the parade and back to the high school - allow some time for your student to turn in their marching band uniform after the parade.
  • Temperatures are going to be in the upper 80's on Monday.  With the student's safety in mind, we will NOT be wearing our formal marching band uniforms.  Students need to wear their marching band tshirt, khaki shorts, black shoes and black socks.
  • IF you signed up to help with uniforms, thank you but, we will not need help with that. 
  • HELP NEEDED FOR PARADE AND PICNIC!  

We will need help with loading the trailer, bus chaperones and walkers, and setting up and running the picnic. Trailer loader should be available to ride with Mr. Miller and the trailer to help unload equipment. Bus chaperones need to be available to walk in the parade with the band and bring backpacks with cold water bottles, sunscreen, and sugar snacks for any low blood sugar issues. Any student with special medical needs may need a parent to carry their meds. At least one parent to have a first aid kit. Our band will perform at the Cemetery Ceremony and then will proceed back to the band room to change before heading to the picnic.

We will need a few parents to head over to the Rotary Pavilion at Schofield Park during the parade to start setting up the picnic. This would typically be a Sophomore or Junior parent so that the Senior parents can enjoy their last parade. Donations should be dropped off at the the pavilion before the start of the picnic.

If you have any questions, please text Jamie at 248-792-1184.

THEY HAVE CHOSEN!

 


Ladies and Gentlemen, 

It is my pleasure to announce the hiring of the next Howell High School Director of Bands!  After a long process and over 40 applicants (Including conducting auditions with our very own Highlander Band), the committee has made their decision.  Let me be the first to enthusiastically welcome Lisa Lachowski into the Howell family as our new director!!!!

Lisa hails most recently from Florida where she taught high school band and marching band.  She also was the drum major of the Spartan Marching Band during her time at Michigan State University.  I am already in contact with Ms. Lachowski and am doing everything in my power to assist in a smooth transition.  I just know she is going to carry our beloved Highlanders to new place and new wonderful accomplishments.  

Be glad, your future is very bright, my Highlanders!

-Smigell

FUNDRAISERS
SCRIPS
  • PAY FOR BAND CAMP AND OTHER BAND EXPENSES BY SHOPPING!
How much money do you spend in a month for regular expenses-  $600 for groceries, $200 for gas, $100 dining out…?  If you paid for those regular expenses using a gift card purchased from the HHS Band Scrip Program, you would get a rebate on each purchase, a rebate that  goes straight into your student's CHARMS fundraising account. Earn money for band camp, instrument lessons, future band trips, etc.

HHS Band Scrip uses the Great Lakes Scrip Center for ordering cards. They have this great YouTube video that explains the basics of the program:

                https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwkeGiRuYVY&list=PLB05706667A3B6471

You can sign up right away using enrollment code C436CCB458883 (to get to the Band Account).

Questions?  You can email our SCRIPS coordinator, Beth Wagner at lisbethwagner@yahoo.com
Once you learn how the ordering system works, this is the easiest money you will ever earn for band expenses. And you earn the rebates on money you have to spend anyway. Put your spending to work for you!

COOKIE DOUGH FUNDRAISER
FACEBOOK FUNDRAISER - YOU COULD WIN MARCHING BAND/CAMP TUITION!!!

Last year, 2 band moms ran an online drawing through a private Facebook group.  And coming this April, we will be repeating this drawing with the prize being free tuition for band camp.  The way this drawing works is:

·        I will post the Item on the Facebook Group (Howell Band Boosters Online Raffle)

·        We will sell 50 tickets at $10 each.  The tickets will go on sale on Monday, April 18th at 7pm.

·        You will purchase a ticket through our PayPal link.  And you will add a picture of your PayPal receipt to the comments of the Facebook post.

·        Once we sell 50 tickets, we turn off comments to the post.

·        We will offer 2 marching band camp tuition drawings. 

·        So once the 1st drawing sells out, I will post an additional drawing.

·        Once we sell 50 tickets, we turn off comments to the post.

·        The actual drawing will occur on April 21 at 7pm via Facebook live.

·        By limiting the tickets to 50 for each drawing, your chances of winning are greatly increased.

How do you participate?  To participate in the drawing, you would need to join our Facebook Group.  As our group is PRIVATE, you will need to be invited to the group.  If you are interested in joining us, please send an email to Dana Sleder at dcsleder@sbcglobal.net.  Once you are a member of the group, you can invite other people to join.  This would be a great way to reach anyone who might be interested in having a chance to send a child to band camp for free.
