Band Parents Meet & Greetnew_arrow[1].gif

Hey!  EVERYONE is encouraged (and invited!!) to join with the Band Boosters (that's us! We're ALL Band Boosters ... and Guard Boosters and Dance Boosters!) on Tuesday, July 29, 7:00 pm.

In addition to meeting, greeting, and eating, you'll receive a 'sneak peak' at what's what and who's who.  Sign up sheets for committees and duties will be posted at this meeting as well as the August 14 meeting.  And T-shirt order forms should also be available at this time.  You will be able to order t-shirts and/or sweatshirts to wear to the football games in support of our kids. And it will be fun!

We all want to have a cookie or two, AND we want to feed the band (to say "Welcome Back!") I will need bakers and shakers!  Are you available to bring some baked goods to share (anything that doesn't need to be eaten with a utensil!). I'm also looking for a few more people to bring sliced fruit (cool and refreshing as the kids will be HOT!)  Sliced (and quartered) watermelon, oranges, melon, strawberries and the like would be great. PLEASE email Deedee Evans if you can help!

Band Picture Day

Band Picture Day is Thursday, July 31, 2008. This year's picture will be taken at the Madison City FootballStadium on Celtic Drive.

On Wednesday July 30th, students WILL take home their uniform, hat,and instrument after the last practice. (Don't worry you will have youruniform assigned to you before the 30th).

On Thursday, Mr. Thornton will open the Band Room at 5:30 pmfor Sousaphones and Drummers to get their instrument.

Everyone else will meet at the stadium at 6pm in uniform. Immediately after the pictures are completed EVERYONE willreturn their band uniform to the Band Room!

Picture envelopes will be passed out on Mon. July 28th after practice. If you would like to order a group picture and/or individual picture of your student, you must include payment in the picture envelope. Envelopes with orders are due at the time of the pictures are taken.

New Webmaster Needed for BJHS Band Boosters Website 

After 5 years, spanning the time my son (Brian) and daughter (Katy) have been a part of the BJHS Band / Color Guard, the time has come for me to transition this effort to another Band parent.  If you have an interest in doing this, please send me an email.
