Hello Band Families!
Big update as we approach the climax of the season, so please read all of the information below:
Thank you all for the help this past weekend at the Big Cat Marching Festival! I’m so proud of the growth the students showed off at the festival! Now, we’re fortunate to get a good amount of rehearsal time within this next week before regionals to continue that improvement!
Regionals is the most important competition of the season, so let’s try to get 100% attendance at this performance! We have not had a show yet with a full roster and it would be great to get a read on the show with everyone in. This is what slots us for quarter/semi finals and looking at the 5A Scores statewide, it’s a coin flip between 6th-10th place so we really want to set our students up for their best possible performance before getting to state.
