Dress Rehearsal!

Hello Band Parents!
We are fortunate enough to be able to schedule a dress rehearsal in the new Community Center on Dec 14th (Monday before our show) from 3:00-5:30. This will be for all instrumental musicians (Orchestra, Winds, Guitar and Percussion) Please make arrangements to pick your students up from the side entrance of the new Community Center at 5:30pm. Thanks so much for all your flexibility during this crazy holiday season, the kids are so excited to perform for all of you!!

Christmas Update

Hello Band Parents!

As our Christmas Band Concert fast approaches on December 15th @ 7:00pm in the new Nativity Community Center (gym) I wanted to send a quick reminder out to everyone that this is a free concert and you are encouraged to bring anyone and everyone you think may enjoy it! So grab grandma, crazy Aunt Sally, or anyone else who may be looking for a little Christmas cheer and bring them out on the 15th. 

Our students are working very hard and the songs are getting better and better each week. I cannot say enough nice things about this wonderful group of students and how well they have prepared for this show. With that said we are approaching a very busy time of year and it is very easy for our practice routines to fall by the wayside, so please continue to encourage your student to practice EVERY NIGHT for a few minutes. It will go a LONG way in helping to make this the best Christmas show ever! In just 10 short weeks our groups have prepared 

Up on the Housetop
The Children's Carols (what child is this/ Lully Lullay, thou little tiny child)
Silent Night
O Christmas Tree
Christmas Mashup
Carols in Concert
Jingle Bell Rock
and MORE!

Please note students will be required to wear the school Uniform but may add fun Christmas Flare Hats, socks, ties (Please no singing ties for the show), etc to their outfits much like they do for Red and Green Day. I look forward to seeing everyone at the Christmas Band Concert!

Sincerely,

Mr. Myers
