Friends & Family Show – Thursday!

Winter Friends & Family Show
Thursday, March 28th
7:30pm – South Gym

This Thursday is our Friends & Family Show. The 7/8 Winter Drumline, 9-12 Winter Drumline, and Winter Guard will perform their shows!

Please invite everyone you know… This is our only “home” performance and your students have really worked hard to put these shows together! Please have your students invite their teachers… Many staff at the high school have no idea what a Winter Guard or Winter Drumline show is – This is a great time to let them know!

These are full performances in full attire… just as in a competition. There is a possibility that snacks may be served following the performances…

Hope to see you there!

Drumline & Color Guard – Payments Due

Just a friendly reminder that all payments for 7/8 Drumline ($50), 9-12 Winter Drumline ($500), and Winter Guard ($600 season & $1300 Dayton trip) are now due.

Please make checks payable to “LCHS MPA” and put in an envelope marked with your student’s name and group, and placed in the black locked box in the band room.

9-12 Winter Drumline Competition Saturday

Here we are… The start of the season!

Uniforms

9-12 uniforms are in and will be worn on Saturday. Sandy will be at the Band room by 5:30pm on Thursday to check hems prior to rehearsal. Please have your student arrive just a little early to get this done.

7/8 Students

7/8 Drumline students are welcome to ride the bus to the competition and help push equipment on for 9-12 and then enjoy the other groups’ performances with the 9-12 students.

If your 7/8 student is planning on attending, they will need to make sure to complete a Field Trip Form and turn it into Ben or Mr. Myers. Students who have not turned in the Field Trip form will not be able to ride the bus.

Please have your student let Ben know at rehearsal this week if they will be attending so we know who will be there.

Cost for 7/8 to attend is $10 — which is the admission cost to the show.

7/8 may join 9-12 for lunch and pizza dinner.
