Hope everyone had a great weekend. The students, once again, did such a great job Friday night. I received many compliments and praise about them and their sound. Please make sure you are supporting football and cheer alongside the band, as we all are trying to maintain an atmosphere of unity. Important info below!
JV Game Tomorrow
The students and I discussed this weeks ago and they have been reminded about it for weeks now that we are performing at the JV Game tomorrow. The game begins at 6:00PM and shouldn't last more than an hour (1hr 30min at the most). There is no set attire for the game, we are just there to support our JV team. We are still having practice tomorrow beforehand so it will make a smooth transition into the game.
All-State
The ABA (Alabama Bandmasters Association) is going forward with having All-State auditions in January. If your student wants to participate, please come see me for information. You will need to purchase the method book for the technical and lyrical exercises.
Thursday Practice
I am watching the weather this week in anticipation of the tropical storm (or whatever it decides to be). We may do only auxiliary again this Thursday so they can finish their routine. More details later. As of right now, everyone still has practice Thursday.
Contacting Mr Melton
I am always happy to answer questions if you have any. Please contact me only through my email at michael.melton@cleburneschools.net I check my email at least 2-3 times a day during the week and once Sunday night.
