Welcome to Mrs. McPeak's Classroom
Band Opportunity from Cardinal O´Hara
Greetings from the Cardinal O’Hara HS Music Department!
The music department here at Cardinal O’Hara HS has a great tradition and reputation within
the Archdiocese. As Director of Bands, I wish to invite your 7th and 8th grade band
members/musicians, as well as students interested in Color Guard, to come and perform in the
stands with our Marching Band.
This invitation is for our upcoming home football game against Lansdale Catholic HS scheduled
for Saturday, October 28th at 4:00pm. It will be a unique opportunity for your students to
perform alongside the band and color guard members within our program and experience the
roaring spirit of the COHS Lions Marching Band!
Schedule for Saturday, 10/28/2023:
● 2:00pm -- Arrive at the East Entrance of the school (facing the fields and rear lot)
● 2:15-3:15pm -- Meet and rehearse with the COHS Band & Guard members
● 3:30pm -- March into the COHS Stadium
● 4:00pm – Kickoff to VFB game (approximately 21⁄2 hrs of gametime)
● 5:00pm – Watch the Marching Band Halftime performance!
● After halftime, students may stay for the remainder of the game or leave.
Chaperones required! All students must be accompanied by an adult for the duration of the
VFB game, as no one may participate unattended without a chaperone. Chaperones may opt
to drop off their children for rehearsal and then rejoin us as we march into the Stadium, or may
remain with us for the rehearsal to observe. Admission to the game is required for chaperones,
and student performers enter free!
What to bring:
● Attire: school uniform or spirit wear to the game (jackets if needed);
● Instruments: students must provide their own brass, woodwind, or percussion;
● Music will be provided by COHS based on instrument indicated on the form (link below);
