2019 MARCHING BAND TRUCK DRIVER STILL NEEDED
For the upcoming marching season we are in need of a CDL driver. If you or someone you know would be willing to donate their time we would be extremely grateful! If you happen to have a supply of CDL drivers, multiple drivers are more than welcome to split the dates. Please contact Jason Rausch @ 815-302-0607 or Michael LeBlanc @ 779-225-9349 with any questions.
QUINLAN AND FABISH (INSTRUMENT EQUIPMENT AND ACCESSORIES)
We have a district preferred retailer, Quinlan and Fabish, to help the needs of our students with their instruments and accessories. You may order through them and they will hand deliver items to us at our school. Also, instrument repair is highly suggested to go through Q&F. You may visit one of their locations (closest is on Rt. 30 in Montgomery), visit their website (www.qandf.com), or pick up a flyer in the band room.
BOOSTER MEETINGS
These meetings are designed to help discuss supporting our band program through funding, volunteering, and music advocacy. The next General Meeting will occur on Wednesday, June 5th at 7pm.
