Upcoming Events in December

SECURITY DIRECTIVE
Due to security protocol and directives, GISD Security and RHS Administration has requested that band student drop off will need to occur from the back of campus.
Students will then present their PINK BAND PASS to proceed to the band room for instrument/equipment drop-off.
We have been asked to keep the exterior band room door only as an exit.
Thus please do not drop off at the band room.


REGION AUDITIONS - Saturday, Dec 5 @ Berkner HS
Student times have been posted today after school on our marker board.  We will remind the students to take a picture of their respective times.
Also please turn-in the $13 at your earliest convenience.


FORMAL CONCERT ATTIRE
The school provides our male band students a tuxedo with the exception of a TUXEDO SHIRT (we were suddenly aware of this).  
Thus we ask that the boys purchase their own tuxedo shirt.  Due to late notice, a white collared shirt will suffice for this concert as well.

I have provided a link for an inexpensive tuxedo shirt from Hobby Lobby as an option.

Friendly reminder for our band girls especially freshman - please purchase an ALL-BLACK Suit for our concerts.  (skirt - knee length or below; pants will suffice as well).  


CONCERT!! - Thursday, December 10 @ 7:00 pm
Come support and enjoy the Sounds of Winter with our concert bands and jazz band. 
In preparation of this concert, we have asked for our Wind Symphony and Honors Band to rehearse after school because the percussion have not had an opportunities to practice with the wind players during the school day. Our Symphonic Band and Concert Band have had multiple rehearsals with the percussion during their respective class period.  The students have worked hard for this concert and we believe it will send you off in the happiest spirit of the holidays.


REGION AUDITIONS - Saturday, Dec 5 @ Berkner HS
Student times have been posted today after school on our marker board.  We will remind the students to take picture of their respective times
Please turn-in the $13 fee at your earliest convenience.


IN CLOSING
We want to thank ALL of the parents who contribute to the efforts in helping support the band program.  From all the paperwork, wet towels, food, water, chaperones, wet bleachers, and countless other responsibilities, there are SO MANY "unsung heroes" who helped this Fall Marching Season - the sacrifices of time and travel - GOING BEYOND CALL OF DUTY!!  

On behalf of all the students and staff, we sincerely appreciate your investment towards the MEB!  THANK YOU SO MUCH!
