P V Music Boosters
The first meeting for Music Boosters will be Wednesday, August 16th at 6:30pm in the band room. The meeting's purpose is to provide introductions and begin conversations about how to best help our students. If the weather cooperates, the students will be able to demonstrate everything they've been working on during band camp. Starting in September, meetings will be at 6:30pm every third Tuesday of the month.
Parent Sign-Ups to Chaperone Football Games
During a typical football game, the band needs parents to help as chaperones on buses, help move equipment, and provide aid if an emergency occurs. We need a minimum of two parent chaperones per game, but four chaperones would be even better. Chaperones get to ride the bus and enter football games for free and end up having a lot of fun while helping our students.
There also is a need for help staffing our Music Boosters booth at all home games. Information about this opportunity will be in next week's update.
Grange Fair Performance Thursday 8/24
Students, if you know you won't be at practice on Wednesday 8/16, you need to communicate with another student what you might need loaded on trailer so it is with you for the parade.
We will then unload the trailer at practice on Friday 8/25 before our first home game.
