Announcements 6/28/20

1)  With Band Camp not happening in July now, it's time to get creative on how we can keep our musical and physical abilities improving before we are able to get back together.  Students, talk to your section leaders about some ways that could help you stay sharp musically, and some ways that we could keep in shape while keeping it fun.  Then the leaders can share any ideas with me so that we can fine tune them.  Remember we will be re-evaluating at the end of July what the next month or so of Band will look like. 

2)  The props team will still meet Monday night at 6:30 to work on the props.

3)  The email I received from Thomas Tours regarding hotels opening back up slowly was that the hotels were hoping to get the refunds out to all the groups "very soon".  This is a good time to let you know how refunds will be handled when they do come in.  We will set up times at the front office of the high school where the school bookkeeper and administration can help me give refunds out in an organized manner.  For those not going to the Rose Parade:  Only money paid out of your pocket will be refunded, so double check your checkbook to make sure we are paying you back the correct amount.  Any money raised by fundraisers will go back into the general Band account.  For those going on the Rose Parade:  You have the option of receiving back money that you paid for the NY trip, or transferring it straight into your Rose Parade trip account.  Any money raised by NY fundraisers will be automatically transferred to your Rose Parade account.  More details will come when we get a definite date for the refunds.
