WF Band Weekly: September 12-16, 2016
We had a successful trip and performance on Friday; thank you all for making it run smoothly!
This week, A2 and A3 classes have their first playing test. We also have our largest recruitment event with the middle school tour and middle school band night (itineraries here). Marching band rehearsals are focusing on completing the show so that we can begin preparing for our competition season. Please view the weekly schedule and links.
Please make sure you are in contact with our Band Booster email list that helps to coordinate volunteer and service opportunities. We will be serving additional numbers on Friday. Please contact Booster President Stephanie Pierce to ensure you are in the loop: stepie7341@yahoo.com
