Good Morning,
This is a reminder that tonight is the beginning of our annual Symphonic Band Camp. This is a required event for all Wind Ensemble and Symphonic Winds students. Students should be at Bridgewater by 6:10.
Also, if you have not already sent it in, please don't forget the $10 for the event. This covers lunch on Saturday, as well as the cost for the extra instructors for the weekend.
Finally - don't forget that trip payment #4 was due a couple of weeks ago. The final payment is due in March. I will have an updated spreadsheet of all accounts by Saturday AM. If you would like to stop in Saturday during the event to check on a final balance, I will be ready with the information. We can also accept trip payments this weekend.

Good Morning,
Additional details have been posted on the band website in the "S&E" section. This includes instructions, directions, and a schedule.
Also, we are in the process of setting up piano player practices. Some students may need to come before or after school for practice.
If your student has Mrs. Vermillion, then she will practice with them during class.
If your student has Ms. Dorman and is in 4th period beginning band, you may need to schedule a before or after school time. I will send out a schedule tomorrow. We will try and do these during the day.
If your student has Mr. Butler as their piano player, then we are trying to have practices during school, but some others will be necessary. Mr. Butler has set up times for students that would like to come in Saturday morning. This would be an excellent time, especially for the older students who need more time. He has times going from 9:00am-noon Saturday morning. Parents are welcome/encouraged to come listen. Please email to reserve a spot - we need 12 students for these times.
