12/14/21 Band Updates

Hello band families,

1. Fruit Delivery Day

THANK YOU to all students and parents who volunteered for this weekend's delivery day. Even though it was our first time taking orders online and doing delivery day in the new space, the day went super smoothly thanks to all of our volunteers. Special thanks to our fruit chairs, Shannon Schaefer and Lisa White, and to our webmaster, Danielle Boorstein, who really made the day run smoothly.

2. Extra Fruit

We have just a few leftover items for sale. Contact Mr. Kurr (skurr@mcpasd.k12.wi.us) if interested to see what might be left.

3. Solo & Ensemble Registrations DUE FRIDAY

Our solo & ensemble festival is coming up soon! Make sure you're practicing your solo as well as any ensembles that you are participating in. Registrations for our festival are due Friday. Click here to register!

There will be a separate form sent out and due after break for the WSMA festival in February. (I didn't want to confuse anyone by sending it now...)

4. No Jazz Rehearsal 12/20

There will be no jazz rehearsal during the short week next week.
