Welcome all band students. The year is off and rolling very quickly! I am very excited about the music and sounds we've been able to make in the band room. It is going to be a great year!

Some exciting events coming up:

Beginning Band Workshop! Friday Sept 25th (6:45 pm-9:00 pm) and Saturday Sept. 26th (9:00am-12:30 pm) - This is one of the best weekends in the band year. All the beginner students get together and work with instrument specialists. They definitely don't sound like beginners at the end of the weekend. Students need their instruments, and red books...but do not need to be dressed up. Public Concert on Saturday in Gymnasium at 11:30am!

Static in the Stars- October 15th 11:00am at SVRSS. A Manitoba based band is going to host a session for all grade 7-12 students that will cover topics such as making it in the music business. This should be an exciting and rare opportunity for our grade 7 & 8 students.

Band Booster AGM-October 20th in SVRSS cafeteria. Grade 8 band will be performing. Students need to be dressed in black pants and shirts. They need their music and instruments for the performance. All parents are encouraged to come out to the meeting and concert. We need to support our band booster club because they do an excellent job of supporting our students.
