One Call Now from December 9, 2013

Students don’t forget to go to the band website and take the survey.  Completing it counts as a grade for class.

Tomorrow is the class-swap rehearsals for Concert Band and Symphonic band

Information for tomorrow’s concert was handed out again in class today.

Tickets for Thursday’s Marching Band Banquet will be available up through the end of the concert tomorrow night.  We will not be selling tickets at the door on the night of the band banquet.

Marching Band Banquet is Thursday night.  We hope to see your student and your family there to wrap up another great season for the Northern Husky Marching Band.

One Call Now December 7, 2013

A few quick announcements:
It is a beautiful day for a parade.  All of the information you need for the Sarnia Parade was handed out to the students twice this week and is available on the front page of PHNBands.org.

All band students need to take the online survey.  Links are available at PHNBands.org, in the Twitter feed, and on many of the FaceBook pages

The concert is Tuesday night.  Guys should have taken home their tuxes by now.  If you do not already own one, get the 40% off online coupon for hobby lobby and you can get a tux shirt and bow tie for about $15.  Ladies: all black.  Poinsettias can be picked up after the concert.

Marching Band banquet is Thursday night.  It will again be catered by Chef Shell’s.  Tickets are available in the band room and will be available up through the night of the band concert.  In order to make sure we don’t over purchase or underpurchase food again, banquet tickets will not be available at the door.  Many students have been asking for nicer clothing at their banquets.  

Please remember to try to do business with those business that support our bands.  Please also consider signing up for Kroger or Meijer rewards.  More information on both of these topics will be available in the Concert program.


Have a great weekend and we look forward to great parade in the last marching band performance of 2013.
