Program Order – dress for the concert is ALL BLACK (8th graders in band shirts?)
We have two goals here folks:
- Making great music and continuing to challenge you as players
- Helping these 8th graders see how fun high school and band is and encouraging them to keep it up.
Both of these are VITAL to our growth as a band and a program and YOU are playing the most important part. Be a great ambassador for our band!
