Students will need to purchase a TRIP SHIRT that will be used for the Broadway Workshop and group gatherings. The cost of the shirt is $10. Money is due by MONDAY, MARCH 17th. All band students will need to have their MEMBER SHIRT for our performance in the park.

Please sign up for the REMIND list for communication throughout the NYC trip. This list is for band students only. We’ll have a separate list for choir. We will stop using the general band Reminds for communication on the trip.
