We are reaching out to every parent to inform you of a dire need in our program right now. Every May we hold the Band Booster Board elections to establish our Booster Board for the upcoming year. We currently have 2 executive board positions that are going to be vacant and do not have a nominee for them.  Our By-Laws state that the executive board positions must be filled in order for us to operate.  The vacant positions are that of VP of Travel and Accounts Payable.  We have experienced members on the board that are willing to help assist and train anyone who is interested in these positions.  We do not want to put our Booster Organization at risk by not having these positions filled with the May elections. We are reaching out to all band parents to find people that are willing to donate some of their time each month to ensure our program can maintain the Tradition of Excellence it is known for.  We also have other board positions that will become vacant after this term, but the 2 executive positions MUST be filled as a priority.  We have included information on all the board positions as well as which positions will have vacancies. If you are willing to help us continue our program’s Tradition of Excellence or have any questions please reply back to Chad Ford via email at cjfkrf3994@gmail.com.

Please plan on joining us for our May Booster meeting, on May 16th at 7pm.

We always accept donations of Green Band Polos and Concert Attire, including concert dresses and tuxedos, for those who won’t use them again or have outgrown a particular size. Please consider donating back to the band, and bring them the next time you come to a Booster Meeting, send them in with a student to give to Mr. Madrinan or email Kathy Hollaway @ kathy.hollaway66@gmail.com for other options

 

Symphonic Band students that will be attending the Universal trip should report to the school at 5:45 AM.  Please have your concert attire (shoes, dress or tux, tie, shirt, socks, cumberbund) as well as your concert shirt in your hand when you board the bus.  You will be responsible for 5 meals, so a suggested amount of money to bring is $75.  Finally, because the movie we will be seeing at Universal Cineplex is rated PG, a refusal form is being made available for parents who do not wish for their child to see the movie.  This attached form only needs to be signed and returned if you DO NOT want your child to see the movie on Friday night.

CHAPERONE STILL NEEDED! We still need one more chaperone for this trip.  Since it is an overnight trip, Chaperones should be Level 2. There is a fee of $250 to cover your park ticket and hotel room. Please contact Jackie Brochman with any questions at jacquelyn.brochman@duke-energy.com.

To sign up, please go to http://www.signupgenius.com/go/70a0f44aaa62ba46-2017

There is still time to register for the Mad Dash! Remember, the Warhawk Band receives 20% of the proceeds for this event - we need all students to participate with their families! 

Go to www.maddash5k.org and join Team Warhawk today! THANKS! 

 

APRIL 21st DEADLINE FOR CURRENT STUDENTS

Here's your chance to own a piece of band history! The Warhawk Marching Band will be receiving brand-new uniforms for the 2017–2018 school year, and we are looking to sell our old uniforms. You may buy a full uniform complete with gauntlets, jacket and bibbers or a decorative pillow handmade from a uniform or a tote bag made from a uniform.

We are offering this fundraiser first to our current marching band students until April 21st (this Friday) after which time we will open the fundraiser to alumni as well as current students who wish to order more. Attached is a flyer with additional information and an order form.

If you have any questions please contact Kim Bernstein: kbernstein68@gmail.com

Notices were sent out last week to the families/students who still owe chocolate money.  Please send in overdue money and place in the blue box, as soon as possible.  Also, please return any unsold chocolate bars to Mr. Madrinan.  Note, if the chocolate is returned, please return in the morning before school so the bars aren’t in hot cars all day.  If you have any questions, please contact Lourdes Pickart at luly632@gmail.com.

 

 

Please join us in celebrating the SHS Marching Band’s accomplishment, outstanding student achievement awards, and graduating seniors at this year’s Annual Band Banquet on Friday, May 12, 2017 @ 6 pm. Anona United Methodist Church.

All band students, parents and family members are invited to attend. You must RSVP by Monday, May 8th, 2017 to reserve your plated dinner. This is a reservation-based dinner. We must have a count to give to the caterer no later than Monday, May 8th. We are unable to accommodate walk-ins on the evening of the banquet. There will be NO payment accepted at the door.  Please bring canned goods or donate as a way of thinking the church for their hospitality.

Please see the attached invitation to complete and send in with your payment.  There is no charge for band/guard students as their ticket price is included in your fair share. However, concert band students that are not in marching band are being offered a special price of $20 per student. All other family members and friends are $25.  Payment can be made to SHSBB. Tear off bottom portion to be included with your payment and drop in the blue box in the band room.  Looking forward to seeing all of you at the banquet!
