Hello everyone,
Here are the announcements for this week.
Congratulations!
Congratulations on a good round of performances this weekend. Thank you for being flexible during the game on Friday, especially waiting for the rain to stop before pre-game. Your help and flexibility is greatly appreciated! A summary of the taped comments made by the judges can be found on the band room door. If you would like to listen to any of them, you may speak with your section leader.
A big thank you to the parents helping with pit crew and water this weekend as well!
Game Tape
We will listen to one of the judges tapes (Music General Effect) and watch some drone footage of our show before Tuesday’s rehearsal at 5:40 PM.
Fall Fundraiser
Fall fundraiser orders and money are due this Thursday, September 15. If you have any problems, questions, or concerns, please contact Mr. B or Mrs. A-M.
Pontiac Invite
Our next competition is the Pontiac Indian Showdown at Pontiac High School. Information about the competition as well as an itinerary can be found by clicking here. The unique thing about this competition is the clinic that will happen prior to the performance. This clinic is one of the judges and is open to the public.
Marching Band Competitions
One of the challenges about marching band competitions is the fact that we may see some of the same judges from week to week. When this happens, judges want to see improvements made within the group/show. Our challenge to each individual in the group is to find one or two mistakes that were made throughout the course of the show and to make those specific mistakes better for next week.
With email being down, I apologize for not sending this before last week. An introduction to marching band competition etiquette for our new participants/parents and a refresher for our returning members/parents can be found by clicking here.
