McKinney Boyd Band Newsletter
11/5-11/15
Congratulations on a great competitive marching season and your performances at Area!
Thank you to another great marching season. We were very proud of your performances at Area and hope you enjoyed the process of creating "Awakening" this season. It has been one of the favorites of the staffs and we hope you had fun as well!
A special shoutout to ALL the volunteers that came together to make Saturday work. A true team effort and it could not have been done without you.
Now we look forward to pulling out the chairs and transitioning into winter concert/region mode for the next few weeks.
MBHS Band Newsletter: Week of 11/5-11/15
1. Only 2 rehearsals left in all marching season (Wed 11/6 and Friday 12/13). There are fewer grades in the season moving forward do to the end of the FB season. Attendance and performance of these events has a major effect on your grade to end the semester.

AWAKENING BAND APP
"Awakening" band app is now open, Join NOW!
All students and parents in Band need to join this years app!
**We will have the ability to ask questions on the chat until the start of school. This is helpful for our new comers but it can be an overwhelming amount of notifications once that train gets started. THIS IS A FEATURE ONLY FOR PARENTS PLEASE. Remember that section leaders also have chats and the liaisons/email can be another means of getting the information you need. Students, if you are not a section leader, stay off the chat feature.
Here is the new link for Awakening: https://band.us/n/acab07jfM5V6a or you can scan the QR here!
