Hello Everyone, Congratulations to the band for coming home with so many awards this past Saturday. This shows that hard work does pay off. The band booster meeting scheduled for October 6 has been canceled. It is rescheduled for Tuesday October 20 at 7PM. Please mark your calenders. If you know of anyone in the band that does not get this e-mail please let them know about the meeting change. Thanks to all who have volunteered in the concession stand at the home football games. If you haven't done your turn please sign up with Belinda Fike. Everyone needs to give her a big thank you, the concession stand has been running very smoothly. THANKS BELINDA!!! This weekend the band will be traveling to the Black Walnut Festival in Spencer, West Virginia. If you can come out and support the Poca Dot Marching Band. Everyone should have received their Rada knife orders. If you haven't gotten yours please see Mr. Carroll. In the packages there are papers where those who didn't get to place an order or need to order more can do so online with a code and we get a profit from their order. Have a great week, Melinda Sprouse |
Hello Everyone,
Thanks to all who helped make our first band competition a success. Mr. Carroll has heard nothing but good remarks from all the bands that participated. Please give yourselves a pat on the back for a job well done. Maybe next year mother nature might be a little kinder to us.
We will be traveling to two band competitions on October 3. As all of you know we feed the students at the competitions. We are in need of snacks and drinks to be donated for this Saturday. We are asking those of you who can to send in snack food such as chips, cookies or anything thing special you think the kids might like. Drinks that we serve them are Gatorade and Water, if you are able to send either one of these in that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance if you can help us with these items.
Lastly we have shirts left over from our band competition. If any one would like to purchase one we are selling the shirts for $5.00 dollars each. You can purchase these from Mr. Carroll.
Again thanks to all the parents for you help,
Melinda Sprouse
Congratulations to the Band students for great showmanship at the James Monroe Compettion. This competition has started the competition year and I think with all the hard work that the band puts in we will have many more trophies to show for it.
