Tonight is the mandatory Tennessee Meeting, which will be held in the auditorium at 7 p.m. If you have a student who is attending the Tennessee trip, we need at least one parent or guardian present at the meeting. Please remember to bring $66 for 5 meals that are covered on the trip and your OTC medication form, which can be found on the band website. Also, the uniform room will be preselling gloves for the trip. Students are required to have 2 sets of new gloves for the performances at a cost of $7 each. Gloves will not be available to purchase in Tennessee, so they will need to be purchased ahead of time. We are also accepting donations of individually packaged snacks and drinks for the long bus rides. There is no obligation to donate, but donations are much appreciated! If you plan to attend the Tennessee performances as a spectator, Kendra will have tickets available for $25 each at the meeting. 

TASTE OF SEMINOLE TO BENEFIT 4A ACADEMY! 

 Hey Parents! Looking for a night with no cooking? Bring the whole family to the annual Taste of Seminole, held in the SHS gym on Thursday, October 19th from 6-8pm. This features dozens of local restaurants serving sample sized portions of their signature dishes. Cost is $25 per person, which allows you to sample each and every restaurant's delicacies! But the best part is, that $20 gets donated to our very own 4A Academy! Come on out and enjoy great food, and then watch the runthrough when you're done! Make sure to fill out the form and note that you're with 4A !

SENIOR NIGHT IS HERE!

 

It's so hard to believe that it's time already....Senior Night is upon us! For those who don't know, Senior Night is being held on October 27 at the home football game. It is a special evening during which we honor our Seniors and their families, in appreciation for all that they have contributed to the program during their four years. It includes a special half-time ceremony in which the seniors walk across the field with their families, a reception for them following the game, and small gifts for the seniors. It's a truly great night - but we need your help! 

 

For Senior Families: Attached is a form that we need each and every senior to complete and turn in to Meg Hall no later than Monday, October 16th. Without this form, your senior will not be announced as they cross the field, so please make sure you get these in on time! Family members walking with seniors should check in at the table next to the ticket booth, and Mom and Dad, you will receive a special token of appreciation at that time! You may sit wherever you wish during the game, but about halfway through the second quarter, an announcement will be made for you to make your way onto the track behind the goal post nearest to the school. When you gather there, someone will meet you to arrange families into alphabetical order. You will be led to the visitors side during half time, and once you cross the field, you will pause for a photo with the esteemed Mr. Madrinan, Dr. Brittain, and other staff members where applicable. You will proceed to the sideline, take a group photo, and then return to the stands to enjoy the game, and of course, the performance of Between Minds after the game! 

 

For ALL OTHER FAMILIES: We need your help! In order to make this night special for senior families, we do not want them volunteering in concessions, chaperoning, or otherwise working in any capacity! We also need food donations for the reception following the game. These donations should be heavy appetizers or casseroles, along with snacks and drinks. 

 

This same evening will also be Middle School Night - Middle School students from Seminole Middle and Osceola Middle will be attending and sitting in the stands with our band, and even joining in with some stand tunes. We will also give them a small welcome reception when they arrive, and will need volunteers to help with that as well.  

 

Please sign up below to volunteer and send in a dish!

Dinner for the 9-9 rehearsal on Saturday will be provided by Hungry Howies. (thank you, Bill Kaiser!!) Each student eating will receive 2 slices of cheese or pepperoni pizza, salad, and cinnamon sticks, along with a drink. Cost for this meal is $5, and Renee Hall will collect this on Saturday morning before rehearsal starts. (similar to the process at Band Camp). If your student will be eating pizza, please make sure they notify Meg Hall at the end of practice on Friday night, so that we order the proper amounts. If your student would like more than two slices, they can let Meg know that they'd like to order two meals, and their amount will be $10. If your student does not like pizza, please plan to drop food off for them at 5pm, or have them pack something for dinner.  EVERY student should plan to pack and bring their own lunch for that day. THANKS!  

The following rehearsals have been added to make up for lost time due to hurricane Irma. This additional practice time will facilitate us meeting our season goals. 

Saturday, 9/16:  5-9p

Friday, 9/22: 5-9p

Saturday, 9/23:  9-9

Saturday, 10/7: 9-9
