Lakeview Concert - A Success!

Congratulations, Howar Band, on a very successful afternoon concert today. You did a great job.

What an adventure today, loading a tight bus as it started to rain (AGAIN), performing in a very hot, humid gym, and then re-loading... Of course, it rained on me as I came back to HJH. You work well under adverse conditions.

Jazz Banders - after about a month of not meeting, you did a fine job of playing Grooved Pavement. Soloists did an outstanding job, and be sure to thank our very own microphone stand, Mr. D! I'm so proud of all of the hard work you have done this year!

Concert Band - a great variety well played. Tubas, trombones, and baritones nice work in your features. Thank you, too, to the eighth graders who voulenteered to speak this afternoon. You did a fine job.

Now looking to the end of the year... tomorrow we will unload the truck and start working on marching music for next fall. Thursday and Friday we will continue working on that music as well as consider seventh graders for drum major. Monday we'll watch our movie. Then it'll be time to start thinking about summer lessons, crazy, huh?
