Good morning all, the concert is today and the banquet is tomorrow! Concert The concert will be tonight at 6:30 pm CST(Bama time) in the Ranburne Elementary Gym. The students will need to be IN the band room by 4:45 PM. I have already told the students every day for two weeks about both of these times as well as reminding them that band is a performance based class and as such the concert is a large portion of their grade. Students are allowed to stay after school rather than go home, but if they do so, I ask that they help set up for the concert, I will need help doing this. Attire is casual formal, I.E. no jeans, t-shirt or tennis shoes, I am willing to allow boots though. If you wear a dress or skirt make sure that it follows school dress code. Also with it being star wars day, and one band playing star wars, I will also allow star wars clothing such as star wars shirts/ dresses. After each band performs, we will start setting up the next band and the previous band will be placed into the stands, much like we did for the Christmas concert. All students must stay for the entire concert, not just their portion. Immediately following the concert we will need help from the parents to put the chairs back up into the room to prepare the Gym for the elementary school tomorrow. EVERY student will need to help put things back into the band room. I am going to be trying something new with the concert programs this year, many band programs have moved to the way of virtual programs with a QR code. I plan to try this, but I will also provide some physical programs as well for those who do not have access to a smart phone, or just prefer a physical one. Banquet Tomorrow is the band banquet, this is for any and every student who marched during the 2022-2023 season, even those who no longer do concert band or have moved schools. If you were a part of the season you are welcome and encouraged to attend. The banquet will be held at Big Time Entertainment in Oxford Alabama at 5:00 pm. We will not be traveling together, we are meeting there so please make sure that you have a ride, if you need a ride please let me know so that I can find another parent to help you out ASAP. The band is providing each student with an arcade card with $10 provided by the booster club and $10 given to you by BTE for a total of $20, Happy hour is until 7:00 pm meaning that all arcade machines are half price, essentially giving you $40 worth on your cards! After the arcade free time we have a room booked that we will have our awards and sweets in. After awards we will have bowling, we have 6 lanes up stairs and 6 lanes downstairs. We have these lanes for one hour. There are allowed 6 players per lane and we allow the upper lanes to groups based on seniority. I suggest bringing extra money for any added attraction you would like to do such as more arcade tokens, mini golf, VR, laser tag, or with parent permission only and the signed waiver Go karts. We will be providing sweets, but not food please make sure to either eat beforehand, or bring money to eat while there! Schedule 5:00 pm meet at BTE and have free time in arcade 6:00 pm Awards in the reserved rooms 7:00-8:00 pm bowling Big Time Entertainment: 42 Tower Rd, Oxford, AL 36203 Marching Band Info I need the Marching band info sheets turned into me tomorrow May 5th.
