From
Mrs Griffin, "Performance Band's family & friends performance will be
Friday 8/25 at 7:00. Prior to the performance we will have a picnic in the
cafeteria for all band members and families. Let's celebrate the end of camp
together! The picnic will be a dish to pass so start thinking about your
favorite dish to share with others! Please arrive with your dish at 5:15, enjoy
dinner and meet the Band Booster officers before heading to the stadium for our
show."
Thank
you to all who volunteered, donated, and bought chicken dinners this past
Saturday. We sold ALL OF THE CHICKEN DINNERS and maximized this as a
fundraising opportunity. Look for another one in the Spring.
Thank
you also to everyone who has provided their contact information. Going forward
we will limit communications to people who have filled out this form: https://forms.gle/3ceSS8JToF7PinSn8,
and those who have supplied their information to the band directors. The email
system is still being adjusted so we are doing our best to include everyone
without overstepping.
The
website has undergone changes so please let us know if anything is missing or
not working correctly. We strive to provide effective communications and www.cppbands.org is one of
the best ways to do that.
At
the bottom of the home page, you'll see a combined calendar for ALL the
performing groups which can be overwhelming. But you can click on the links
atop the calendar to see individual groups, or you can use the drop-down arrow
on the upper-right to choose which calendars to view. There are also direct
links to each calendar atop the frame. We suggest subscribing to the view that
works best for you using the "+Google Calendar" at the bottom of the
calendar frame.
We
are starting the process of ordering band shoes ($36) for those who need them.
*** PLEASE, PLEASE *** check with your student. Sometimes they order the shoes
and forget to pass that info to you. Sometimes they don't order shoes, even
though they are needed. The cost of band shoes is $36 per pair.
Thank
you so much for your patience & support. It is shaping up to be another
fantastic year!
