Before each practice ends, the entire band typically does a run through of the show. We would encourage parents to bring a lawn chair, a cold drink and come watch the kids perform. See what's going on and take in some beautiful music and marching. The kids are working hard and it shows! They love having an audience! (Just be careful not to talk over the instructors :).
The Seminole High School Band has been invited to perform at the grand opening of the Earth Fare store at the Seminole Town Center (old Seminole Mall) on Wednesday, September 28th.

October: The first water date in October is a Saturday 9am-9pm full band rehearsal day. Be on the lookout for fruit signups for this date, as well as our need to have full shifts during this all day event. We have plenty of grapes for this day, but will need pineapple & watermelon.
