December Events Galore!

Dear Parents,

I hope you all had a great weekend. This newsletter update is filled with announcements about our December events. Also, with our short school week, we have held off on any new practice assignments. Students will get new practice sheets on Wednesday, which will include 2 "free days" to help keep them from falling behind over the Thanksgiving holiday.

After School Rehearsals
Tuesday, November 22: Marching Rehearsal from 2:30-4:00 PM (*note earlier release time)
Tuesday, November 29: Marching Rehearsal from 2:30-4:30 PM
Tuesday, December 6: Advanced Band Rehearsal from 2:30-4:30 PM

Tree Lighting - December 2
Advanced Band's performance at the tree lighting festivities is set, and we have been hard at work to prepare this fun music!  Call time is 6:15 PM on the corner of 3rd Street and Curry Street. with the following items:
  • Instrument

Our performance begins at 6:30 PM and concludes at 7:00 PM. See the handout sent home with students for more information.

Sparks Hometowne Christmas Parade - December 3
Call time will be 9:30 AM in the band room for the marching band. The parade starts at 1:00 PM and we will stop at Meadowood Mall on our way back. We are typically back by 5:00 PM. I will send out a detailed itinerary once we receive our parade entry information from the City of Sparks.

Winter Concert - December 7
This concert is mandatory for all groups. There will be two performances: 6:00 PM and 7:00 PM.  See the flyer for all additional details. 

That is all for now.  I will post more updates as needed.
