Performances

 

Thanks to everyone for their participation in the Toledo Memorial Parade and the Whitehouse and Waterville Services.  Many positive comments were heard.  

Recordings for Sale

 

CD Recordings from the marching band recording session are available for sale.  These pre-orders are $16 (checks should be made payable to AWBB).  Order forms have been made available to the band students (if you haven't seen one, please ask your son or daughter).  Students who take orders for 5 or more CD's will receive a $5 prize from the recording company.  The deadline to pre-order is June 1st.   Although a limited number of extra CD's will be ordered, the only way to ensure that you receive a recording is to pre-order.

 

Graduation Band

 

Members of the Symphonic Band will be providing music for Graduation on June 5 (Grad Band).  Students should wear nice clothes (no shorts or jeans) and arrive at the high school by 8:30am.

 

Cherryfest

 

The Whitehouse Cherry Festival Parade will be held on Saturday, June 12th at Noon.   Students should be dropped off at the school no later than 10:30am.  We know there is an ACT test that morning also and are working to see if there is a solution so that the Juniors can also march.  An e-mail will be sent out when more information is available.

 

Cedar Point

 

The band will perform at Cedar Point on Monday, June 14.  The performance takes place in the morning (students should arrive at the high school by 7:30am) and then the students are free to enjoy the park.  The cost for a Cedar Point ticket is $27.50.  Students can bring money for their ticket the morning of the performance.  We will leave Cedar Point at 9:30pm and should arrive back to school around 11:00pm.
