Hello Band Families!

The next couple of days may be a bit dreary – which is perfect for everyone to contribute to two special projects for our Band Yearbook.

Deadline for special project photos: Saturday, April 18th.
Deadline for ordering Band Yearbook: Saturday, April 25th
(Note: Your band yearbook can now be mailed directly to your home. Treering has reduced shipping costs to just $2.99 each. Update your account with your mailing address in order to have your book mailed directly. Any books not updated will be sent to school – and held there until you can pick them up).

COPING with COVID…
As we are all dealing with the restrictions that physical distancing due to COVID-19 has placed on us….impacting not only school but band, friends and family – lets also remember how we are making ourselves stronger. There will be a special page in our Band Yearbook to highlight this very extraordinary time in all our lives. I’m hoping you can contribute to its pages! Please email me ANY photos you may have of how you and your family have dealt with physical distancing. Do you Zoom? Send a picture of a Zoom with your band friends, band parents? Seniors getting together? Winter Guard or Percussion having a Zoom or Discourse meeting? How about a picture of an activity you and your family have done to break up your day? Solve a puzzle, go for walks, take on a new project?

SENIOR SHOUT-OUTs
Our band seniors may have missed a few milestones – like prom and spring banquet (hopefully not Graduation!) but they can still be featured in our Senior Shout-Out page in the Band Yearbook. Send me a baby picture and “grown up” picture (or just a grown up picture) of your senior, you can even add a nice surprise message – and it will be included in the Band Yearbook.

All the best to everyone!!
