One Call Now, April 26, 2015

Greetings from the Port Huron Northern Bands

It’s Sunday, April 26, 2015

A couple of events to catch you up on.

Two fund raisers running right now.  We are doing spring flowers and pizza kits.  Packets and information are in the band room.  You can also get details on PHNBB.com.

We gave away our first trip to Myrtle Beach to the grandmother of a freshman band student.  This trip included Airfare and hotel accommodations.  You are welcome to purchase a ticket.  There are 11 drawings left, 11 trips, including one to Hawaii, 11 cash prizes, and 11 oil changes.  Contact us for more information.

Band festival is this week.

Your students’ bands are performing on Friday.  The Symphonic Band has an after school rehearsal on Monday, the Freshman have one on Tuesday.   Students have a more detailed schedule in their possession.  

Please ask them for a copy, if they have misplaced it, you can get a copy of all TWiBs at PHNBands.org

We are also looking for both student and parent volunteers to host festival Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.  Thursday and Friday we need volunteers for a few hours at a time from 1:30 PM to 9:30 PM, and Saturday from 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM.  Parents, please contact us through PHNBB.com to volunteer.

Thank you so much.  We can only offer cool opportunities for kids if we have the help doing it.

As always, the text of this message can be found at PHNBands.org.
