Madrigal Notes from Mrs. A-M
(To be sung to the tune of Santa Claus Is Coming To Town)
Get out of the house, be ready to try
Better not grouse, I’m telling you why-
Madrigals are coming to town!
We’ve created a list,
Please sign it twice –
Once for the set up, then the show, would be nice!
Madrigals are coming to town!
We need you in the kitchen, we need you in the gym,
We need you doing laundry, or perhaps a tree you’ll trim!
So-
Grab your power tools, don’t depend on elves,
Hop into your cars and bring your awesome selves!
Madrigals are coming,
Madrigals are coming,
Madrigals are coming – sign up!!
(To be sung to the tune of Silver Bells)
Madrigals! Madrigals!
It’s Magic time at the High School.
Buy your seat. The show is neat!

Minier Christmas Parade
The Minier Christmas Parade will be Saturday, December 3. We will play “Let It Snow!” which will be handed out next week (November 28) in class. Call time for the parade is 1:00 PM at the school and 1:30 PM in Minier. The parade steps off at 2:00 PM and we should be finished around 2:30 PM. We will be finished in time for those involved with Madrigals. After we finish with the parade, food will be provided for the entire band. Those that live in Hopedale and Minier can meet us at the parade. Students are encouraged to add festive decorations to their instruments that will not damage them.
Pep Band
It’s time for basketball season and that means one thing, pep band. There are two games on the schedule that occur during this semester and one game over winter break. The games are on December 6 (Prairie Central), 9 (U-High), and January 6 (Central Catholic). Call time for each game will be 6:15 PM. Depending on how close the game is, it could finish between 8:45 PM and 9:15 PM. For these games, students should wear something Olympia NOT in the visiting school’s colors.
Pep Band Binders
We will have a pep band binder making party after school on Monday, December 5. This will involve copying, three hole punching, and organizing music in brand new binders! Anyone who can help would be greatly appreciated.

As always, please do not hesitate to email or call if you have any questions.
