Hello, hello, hello!
- We have 59 people signed up for the Nashville trip. If there are any last minute additions, please let me know. I'm planning on sending in a check to the travel company with the student's account information THIS week. Here is the account information. - We have a scheduled Winter Performance in the park on FRIDAY, DECEMBER 16th. We will play after the Trimpe MS band. DRESS WARM! - We have a tentatively scheduled Band Tour (to visit Meadowbrook Elementary and Trimpe MS) for Friday, Dec. 16th. This will help recruit students to joining band in the future and to stick with it! Band is truly a life changing experience. I'm working on finalizing a few details as of right now, but it will be on FRIDAY, DECEMBER 16th after their first and second hour finals. This would be an all day event. We would leave after finals, perform at Meadowbrook, eat lunch in Bethalto, perform at Trimpe, rehearse side by side with Trimpe, eat dinner with Trimpe band students, then pack up and head to the park for our Winter Performance. More information to come about this, but please keep it on your calendar. - Extra Credit Opportunities - Extra Fine Arts Critique See below on Friday, Dec. 9 on how to do a Fine Arts Critique, but if you turn in more than one critique on different performances, you can earn up to 100 points of extra credit. - Girl's Basketball Games - Pep Band - Tuesday, Dec. 20 (Sign up is on my office door) - Concert Set-Ups See below.
