Instrumental Spring Concert: Thursday June 2, 7:00pm in the Auditorium. The Orchestra, symphonic and concert bands, and jazz band have a special program planned with a Michael Jackson/Beatles theme! This is a not-to-be-missed show...and a great way to celebrate another fabulous and creative year for our talented musicians! Come on out! Music Banquet: Friday, June 3rd, 6:00pm in the Cafeteria. All music families are invited to this potluck dinner (ask your student what you're supposed to bring). New officers will be announced and Mr. Crawford will present the year's music awards. As a special treat, we will have the opportunity to view a 30-minute "sneak peek" at the still-in-progress film, "Sweet Old World", which features our SPHS band!! This will be a much-anticipated first look at this film, which will be shown at 7:30 in the BAND ROOM. After this showing, the Music Banquet festivities will resume back in the Cafeteria. Bingo Committee: There are many parents who will be "retiring" this year from the Bingo Committee, so lots of opportunities for us MUSIC PARENTS to step up and join the committee! Your term would start in September, and the commitment is to work one Saturday per month. It's really a lot of fun! Band Camp: August 8-12 and 15-19, 8:00-4:00 on campus. Lunch included. With school starting on August 25th, band camp had to be moved up a week. If you know of incoming 9th graders who plan to be in the marching band next year, please let them know that it is crucial that they attend Band Camp, in order to learn marching basics and begin to learn the music for the field show. (The first home game is Sept. 9th!!) Contact Mr. Crawford with any questions about Band Camp. Upcoming events:
The Spring concert is June 2 at 7:00 PM at the school auditorium. The Music Banquet is June 3 at 6:00 PM at the school cafeteria.
