December 9 - December 13
Good afternoon band family!
This Thursday is our Winter concert at 7pm at Kennedy High School PAC! The call time for this event will be 6pm. Everyone will be performing at this event starting with 4th period, followed by the combined group. The dress is formal as usual but with a holiday spin. Basically, concert black but feel free to pair that with a Santa hat, Christmas sweater, etc. Dress nice but be festive!
This week is stacked in terms of scheduling with both zero period rehearsals and auditions coinciding. Auditions have been posted and will begin tomorrow in class for 2nd and 3rd and continue after school. Make sure to review your time and be prepared to go early. The rehearsal schedule this week will be similar to last week with combined groups on some days and a day for 4th period only, so make sure to review the schedule at the end of the email.
For those that are planning to auditions for the AUHSD Honor Band, the application deadline is end of day this Wednesday, December 11th. Be sure to have all of the instructions for submitting, as well as the required scales and google form.
Turkey Day is this Friday! Food should be dropped off at 7:30 in the band room. At that time you’ll get your “ticket” in for the day. Make sure to review your dish instructions before then so that you know what should be expected. Turkeys should be around 20-22 lbs, enough to feed 20 people per turkey. Sides should all arrive in disposable dish-ware. Everything will be tossed at the end of the day. This is a huge fun potluck event but only works when everything is organized correctly. It’s going to be a blast!
We have our December Booster Meeting THIS TUESDAY at 7pm so we can hash out more details regarding turkey day then.
Here’s a weekly breakdown:
M - 0 period Combined Band
T - 0 period Combined Band/Booster Meeting
W - 0 period 4th Period Only
Th - 0 period Combined Band/Holiday
Concert 7pm at KPAC
F - TURKEY DAY!
