Announcements 2/20/17

Hope everyone enjoyed your long weekend!  We start back with a bang on Tuesday:

1)  Jazz Band on Tuesday from 3:30 to 4:30.  We will be running through everything that we will play at Saturday's Miss Harmony Pageant.  

2)  At 5:30 on Tuesday there will be a pizza party for those students who auditioned for the All-West Honor Band.  This is to show my appreciation for the hard work and courage it took to challenge yourself with such difficult music!

3)  From 6:30 to 8 pm on Tuesday there will be a rehearsal for the 8th graders and the SGCHS Band to play together.  I want them to hear what it sounds like to play with a full, great-sounding band!  This also gives them a chance to ask current high school students about High School Band and about High School in general.

4)  Miss Harmony pageant this Saturday.  Everyone who is working, including the Jazz Band, will need to report at 9 am in the cafetorium.  We will be done by 3:30 pm.  See our website, southgibsonband.blogspot.com, for more info about the pageant.
