2. Another combined rehearsal with 8th grade Thursday night, 6:30-8. Meet in the band room. Cookies afterwards.
3. Game Friday night, it's going to be chilly, wear a layer of longs under the uniform.
4. Music Boosters are looking for band parents to work the concession stand this Friday night, and for the 2 remaining games in October. Please be willing to work the 2nd shift, even though you'll miss the band. If they don't find band parents, then band kids will not get the credits toward their trip and chorus parents will be asked. We want these chances to earn money towards our trip when we have them. We do the 5th quarter performance at the end of the season so that all of the parents can see all of the shows. You'll earn $20-30 for Florida from working at concessions, I know there are plenty of you who want to bring that price down, this is a great way to do it. Email me if you're interested, (parents only, not students) and I'll send your email to the person in charge of concessions.
5. Bonfire this Friday is ON! Hope all of the students are able to make it. It will be a great night to stand by the fire, for sure!
6. I will be sending a letter home about the Illini trip on November 15th, and another one about the Florida trip by the end of this month, with all of the details that I have about both, including how much you have raised on past fundraisers. Watch for that to come home with your kids. It will also be posted in multiple places on this website.
7. I am pleased with our progress so far this year, looking forward to some more awesome halftime shows.
