Football Band
The fall athletic season is starting soon, and that means that it is time for the LWMB students to bring the energy to L-W football games!
The game schedules are on the Google calendar on the LWMB website: https://www.lincolnwaymusic.org/lwmb-season-calendar.html
All LWMB woodwind, brass, and percussion members are required to perform at the football games for their home campus. Students are invited to play in the football band at other campuses when there is not a game at their home campus. Color guard members are invited to pick up an instrument and play at games if they would like.
Here are the "Remind" codes for each campus "football band." LWMB students should join the group for their campus, and are welcome to join the other two groups if they wish.
To join, text the following code to 81010:
Central @lwcfbb2023
East @lwefbb2023
West @lwwfbb2023
Friendly reminder - students must find their own ride to rehearsal on Monday and for the Institute performance on Tuesday. The shuttle bus service will begin on Wednesday. New members - check with your section leader or older students to find out where to wait for the shuttle at your campus!
LWMB Community Night
Saturday, August 26 - LWMB Community Night at EAST
All family members, friends and community members are invited to attend a preview of the LWMB competitive show, Interstellar!
