Announcements from Mr. Snyder
June 2010



Summer is here!

The Mini-Camp was a terrific success last Friday and the new sophomores promise to make our band soar to new heights this Fall. Congrats to our terrific Field Commanders and Leadership team for an exceptional day!! Please remember to stay in communication with the leadership team members for any and all sectionals over the summer. Mandatory rehearsals begin in August.

Please go to the band website and stay up on the latest payments for band camp and the Florida trip. Remember we would love to take as many folks as are interested with us to Orlando, however the trip is not mandatory for all marching band members. We know this is an excellent value and will be a trip the students will never forget.

Do have a great summer and recharge those batteries for another exciting musical year at Lakota West. Two important facts: The more you put into music the more you will get out of it(parents included in the Upbeat Club :) )and the better you get, the more fun band is!!
