For placing in the top 10 chairs of their room and advancing to the second phase on December 2nd! At this audition they will be auditioning for the coveted Area spots as well as participation in the All region bands. Freshman will also have their audition on this day for the freshman region band.
When we get back from break the “instrument-palooza” takes place Tuesday, November 28th. This is a predominantly social event put on for the 7th and 8th grade students to get them excited about HS band in their future. We will play holiday tunes, games, and there will be refreshments. We ask that all current and prospective leaders attend this, but all HS students are welcome.
Immediately following this event (on Tuesday the 28th) the battery will go play at halftime for the first Hebron home basketball game. Attire for this is their drumline t shirt, black shorts/pants (or jeans).
Happy Thanksgiving,
Mr. Koch
