ANNOUNCEMENTS
Marching Mustang Invitational
South Effingham High School
Our first competition is among us! This is a great opportunity for us to showcase the work that we have done, receive some helpful feedback, and support other schools from around the state who have been working just as hard as we have!
Please keep in mind that OUR success is measured by the process of preparing for performance and the quality of what we put on the field and should not be based on individual opinions of our show. Your goal should be to do your very best and walk away feeling proud of the work that you have done.
General Admission
General admission is $10.00 at the main gate. Children who are under the age of 5 are free.
Calendar Updates
In light of the recent events, I want to address the importance of flexibility regarding our band schedule. Our primary goal is to provide our students with a successful and fulfilling remainder of the season. However, this will require some adjustments to our usual plans.
