More Announcements before Band Camp
Here is some more information regarding the season and band camp that each of you need to know.
Picture Day
Pictures are scheduled for Aug 16 @1pm. This picture will be in full winter uniform and more details will be covered later.
OU Band Day
We have officially been accepted to travel and perform at the Ohio University Band Day down in Athens, Ohio on September 4. For those of you that don't know, the Ohio University Marching 110 is a very accomplished and exciting show style band. We as the FHS marching band are going to be doing some new things this year that are closely related to the style that the Marching 110 so accurately displays. Band Day is at a regular football game and many many high schools come from all over to watch and perform with the Marching 110.
Along with this performance opportunity comes a fund raising opportunity. Our boosters can purchase as many tickets as we would like through Ohio University Atheletics and sell them for $15 each. $15 is cheep for a college football game! We need some form of count to know how many tickets to purchase. Tell your friends, family, neighbors, community, and anyone that you think might like to go watch the Fredericktown High School Marching Band perform in Peden Stadium with a lot of great bands. We need a ticket count ASAP, so please email your name and the number of tickets you think you can sell to fredtownbands@gmail.com
Paperwork and Dues
Just another friendly reminder that paperwork and payments are now past due. All payments (including money for binders, polos, band camp, etc.) must be submitted no later than the arrival for band camp.
Summer Uniform and Band Camp Preview
This year we will be doing a FHS Marching Band preview at the end of band camp for anyone that would like to attend. The preview will be at 6:00pm on the Friday (Aug. 6) that we return from camp. Parents/family can start arriving around 4:30 to help their student get loaded and ready to go home. At 5:30 we will need all students (and only students) in the band room to warm up and prepare for the performance. At6:00pm there will be a preview performance of everything we worked on at band camp.
For this performance we will be wearing the new summer uniforms which have now been ordered and look great! Another reminder that each student must have a pair of solid white tennis shoes to go along with their summer uniform this year. They will receive their new polo at band camp, but they must have their white shoes, ankle-high white socks, and black mesh shorts ready before band camp.
Thanks everyone, and I am really looking forward to band camp. Mr. Smith
