Just wanted to remind you all of some pretty important events that we have coming up this week:
This TUESDAY (February 27th):
We will have our last after school rehearsal with the High School 9-12 grade band from the end of school until 4PM central.
This WEDNESDAY (February 28th):
Your FOURTH Chicago trip payment will be due. The amount is still $135 and you can make all checks out to RHS Band. It is getting closer and closer to time for our last payment, so if you are behind on payments, please make plans to bring those in!
This THURSDAY (March 1st):
The 9-12th grade concert band will be performing for ratings at our District Music Performance Assessment event at Gadsden City High School. We will be performing at 1:30PM Central in the Gadsden City High School Auditorium (you will see signs). The performance is open to the public and free! Students will be wearing their marching band uniforms, so they will need to bring long black socks as well as black dress shoes (no tennis shoes) or their marching band black Dinkles shoes. We will be leaving in the morning at about 8:30AM and will be stopping at the Gadsden Mall for lunch. Students will need to bring their own money to eat for lunch. After our performance in the afternoon, we will be leaving and should arrive back at the school by 3:45PM central. I will have students call and let everyone know if there are any unexpected schedule changes while on the trip. If you do not drive, please have a ride ready to pick you up at 3:45PM central!
This FRIDAY (March 2nd):
The 7th/8th grade Intermediate Band will be performing for ratings at our District Music Performance Assessment event at Gadsden City High School. We will be performing at 10:30AM Central in the Gadsden City High School Auditorium (you will see signs). The performance is open to the public and free! Students will be wearing their MPA shirts that we have ordered (I will be passing those out later this week) as well as black pants/skirts/etc and black shoes. The pants should preferably be dress pants if possible and the shoes should preferably be dress shoes (if they were in marching band, the marching band Dinkles shoes will be perfect) and not tennis shoes. We will be leaving at about 7:30AM on Friday morning (PLEASE DEAR LORD DO NOT BE LATE!) and we will be stopping at the Gadsden Mall after we perform to have lunch. Students will need to have money to eat for lunch. We will be heading back to school from there and should arrive close to 3PM Central. There is a possibility that we arrive back at school before the buses leave at 2:40PM, but THAT IS NOT GUARANTEED. Each student needs to have a ride ready to go by 3PM central at the school. Please plan accordingly!
