This week in Band!

This week in band!

This is a very productive season for our band! Two great performances this past week and another one on Monday Oct 1.

I was so proud of our band and boosters Thursday. The band gave the best overall parade performance we have had in our short history. Boosters provided water and kept our kids hydrated, then stayed late, packed and hauled equipment. Special thanks to Kristine Vasquez who stayed late and hauled equipment back to bandroom. 

Also, special thanks to the band parents who are helping paint our band hall today.  Thank you parents!

Monday is another football game. See the calendar for the itinerary. Students should bring $5 for pizza before the game. This weeks game is at Couch stadium next to Loos Fieldhouse on Spring Valley. 


Marching band this fall!

There are so many great marching bands and contests in the metroplex. Every week I will post information about local contests. Most contests have a small entry fee but some are free. This week the big contest in the area is the Bands of America regional being held in Denton TX at the new Apogee stadium on the campus of University of North Texas. Preliminaries start at 7:30 AM and run all day. Finals start at 7:30 PM. This is one of the biggest contests of the year and draws some of the best bands from all over the state and the southwest.
