Leeds Week!!!

Parents and Students,
First and foremost a want to take a small opportunity to brag about our students. This weekend the Childersburg Band participated in the Chief Ladiga Marching Competition and did an outstanding job. We did not walk away with the superiors we had hoped for but standing on that field Saturday afternoon I could not have been more proud of the performance and work ethic of these students. They definitely represented Childersburg with a lot of pride and class and nothing makes me more proud as a band director.
Now it is time to prepare for our next goals. Which includes supporting our team into the play-offs and preparing for our christmas concert and MPA in the spring. I can not wait for this next chapter for this year. Here are several announcements for this week:

• Fruit Orders are Due Tomorrow. All fruit orders are due tomorrow so we can make sure to have the order in as soon as possible. 
• This week we will not rehearse on Monday or Tuesday, we will rehearse Thursday to prepare for our game on Friday.
• Friday we travel to Leeds High School. Here is the itinerary: Leeds. 
• You will notice there are two options for our trip Friday. That is because as an incentive for the fruit fundraiser I offered a trip to the Outlet Shops at Grand River if the band was able to meet our fundraising goal of $5000. I will know no later than tuesday if we will be taking that option and will post the results here. If this happens I will also be looking for Chaperones for that trip. 

Band Pride!!!
