Lots of Band News!

Hello Everyone!

 

There is a lot going on this month and in the coming months.  Please take a few minutes to read through the information so that you do not miss anything.

 

Booster Fees:  If you have not paid your spring Booster fees ($50), please do so immediately.

 

Concert Uniforms: Many of you still need to pay for your dress or tuxedo. Please take care of this immediately.

Please make sure you have everything you need including black socks, hosiery, black shoes, bow tie and cummerbund. I saw a few boys without bow ties and shoes last week.   Please do not depend on the extras being available.

 

MPA is Thursday, March 12 at JCHS.  Family and friends are welcome to attend.  The Concert Band will perform at 4:30 and the Wind Ensemble will perform at 5:30. Both groups will leave from school. You will need to bring all of your concert uniform with you to school.   Make sure that you have all of the pieces to your uniform.

The Concert Band will stop for lunch on the way to JCHS.  Please bring money for lunch to eat at one of the restaurants near the new Wal-Mart on Hwy 72.

We need 3 more chaperones to travel with the Concert Band.  You will need to be at the school by 11:45. Everyone will return to the school by approximately 7:00pm.

Watch for more detailed information from Ms. Thomas this week.

 

Don’t forget out Tupperware fundraiser.  Orders turned into the school must be turned in Monday. All online orders must be made by Wednesday, March 11. Go to https://bjhsband.com/tupperware/ for order information.

 

Nominating Committee is starting to meet. If you are interested or know someone who is interested in one of the elected officer positions on the board please let one of them know.  This year’s nominating committee is:

Monique Hassledon – Chairperson, mshandrew@madisoncity.k12.al.us

Wyndie Meyer,  wyndie11@gmail.com

Kirsten Lewis, eagle.kirsten.lewis@gmail.com

Deidre Joffe, gogators@knology.net

Angela Gary, garysinal@knology.net

 

If you are interested in one of the committee chairs – chaperones, uniform, truck drivers, spirit wear, or being on a committee including concessions, please let Cindy (cindyleaphart@gmail.com ) know.

 

We are looking for someone to manage our band website. Janine Reardon has been doing a wonderful job, but would like to hand it off to someone else.  This is not a board position just a convenient coincidence that she is also the secretary.  If you are talented in this area and think you might be interested please let me know.

Bylaw Amendment:  At our last Booster meeting an amendment to our bylaws was passed to allow the balance left in a student’s account to be transferred to another student.  This must be done in writing and a form will be available soon.
