2021 MARCHING BAND-UPCOMING
UPDATE: Beginning THIS WEEK, WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE ALL BAND MEMBERS IN ATTENDANCE. We are in need of finalizing rosters and writing the show so it is ready in time for band camp.
Speaking of BAND CAMP. We will move to full band camp! The days will run from 1-9pm, with a meal break in the middle.
Rehearsals continue this week on Tuesday. Rehearsals will be from 6-8pm on the eastside (water tower side) of the school. Plan to arrive 15 minutes early to check-in for COVID protocols. Drop off by the tennis courts.
These rehearsals will be dedicated to movement and fitness. Students will not need their instruments. Students will need to wear athletic clothing, athletic shoes (running shoes are best), have water bottles, and you will need to bring a towel to lay down on hard surfaces such as the parking lot or gym.
Rehearsals may change places, be shortened, or cancelled, due to weather conditions and space availability.
Percussion is 5-8pm on Tuesday
NO Colorguard THIS WEEK!

LEGACY BRICKS PROJECT
Current sophomore trumpet player, Travis Zumstein, is working on his Eagle project for Boy Scouts. Current members and alumni know the grassy area between the band doors and the garage door becomes a muddy mess every time it rains. This causes a whole host of issues during practice and when loading and unloading for competitions.
Travis is selling Legacy Bricks to be used to brick this area. The Legacy Bricks are a great way to commemorate your student’s years with the Marching Tigers. You can purchase a brick that will be permanently located at Plainfield North showing their name and years with the band. If you are interested in purchasing a brick, please follow the link below. Once the project is paid for, all remaining money will go to the band program at North.
