Band survey

One Call Now, Saturday, December 6

Thank you to the band families that donated blankets, hats and gloves on Thanksgiving Day.  We got some very nice feedback from the person that helped facilitate the collection and distribution of those donations at a community center in Detroit.

Northern Marching Band.  Tonight is the last performance of the 2014 Northern Marching Band.  Please eat dinner, arrive a little after 4 with small and medium instruments OUT of cases, full uniform, Santa hats and scarves. Don’t forget your Birth certificate, nexxus, passport or enhanced licenses.  All of these are permitted documentation for quick back-and-forth student performances.  More information is at PHNBands.org

Jazz Band performs on Sunday at the Festival of Trees.  Timeline is at PHNBands.org

The holiday concert is December 16 is a “concert blacks” performance.

We are also encouraging a donation of a canned or boxed good for a local pantry.  For each donation, you will get a ticket for drawings for some band apparel and stickers

Because of the incredible busy-ness of the season, the Marching Band banquet will be held the first Tuesday we get back from break at 6 PM.  It will be a nice way to kick off the new year together.
