Hello Marching Band fans! Thank you to those of you who came out to see us at Suckasunny Day, it is always a joy to have another chance to perform for you! We were glad the weather held off long enough to not only perform, but get back to the school and get the rest of the drill on the field! Also, a huge THANK YOU to all our parent volunteers who came out to help us load/unload for Suckasunny Day, we couldn’t have done it without you!
Speaking of volunteers, we are in desperate need of more people to help with the Roxbury Band Classic in just TWO WEEKS FROM NOW (9/21). Even giving a few hours of your time can make a big difference in being able to host such a huge event. Please help us out by clicking here and signing up for a position!
This week is our first away football game. As a reminder, Color Guard and Sound-only students do NOT come with us to away games. Only Marching Gael wind players and percussionists make up our pep band for away games.
With our first competition coming up, and still having so much to learn for the show, please make sure everyone is taking care of themselves so we’re not missing people from these important upcoming rehearsals – get lots of sleep, drink lots of water, eat well, don’t put off homework, etc. etc.! If you need anything, don’t hesitate to ask, we are all here for each other… ONE BAND, ONE FAMILY!
Mr. Sweer
