Hello Pates, happy November! I hope everyone enjoyed the extra hour of sleep you got last night and had fun trick or treating for those that went Friday.
Well the band's marching season is officially over after yesterday's loss to Liberty. The team had a good season and we were a big part of that. Thank you band for your hard work and dedication to the program. We had a great season with outstanding performances across the board. Thank you to our band council for their excellent leadership, to our seniors for your many years of service to the band, to all of our parent volunteers who were a big help all season. Thank you also to Mr. Lynn and Chris for their tireless work for the program. We are very lucky to have such excellent and dedicated instructional leaders. Thank you all for a wonderful season!
The orchestra has been doing fantastic work in class preparing for the upcoming Winter concerts in December. The music has been improving little by little every class day and I'm really excited for the concerts coming up. I know everyone will really enjoy the performances.
Mr. Lynn has posted info for jazz band tryouts. That info can be found here.
The string orchestra will be going to a string adjudication at Moravian University on Thursday. They will be leaving at 8:30 and returning at 1:30. They should bring a lunch. Dress nice, concert black would be acceptable but not required.
The fife and drum corps will be performing at Farmersville elem. for their Veteran's Day program on friday during 2nd block. Bring uniforms to school.
Looking ahead:
Nov. 11 - Fife Corps to Governor Wolf for Veteran's Day program

Have a wonderful week everyone!
