Happy Spring! As always, we will be honoring those who serve our country and those who have been responsible for the great freedoms we enjoy every day through our performance in the Carlisle Memorial Day Parade.
Thank you to those of you who have joined us in the past for the combined middle school/high school/alumni/parents/friends of the band Memorial Day Parade performance in Carlisle. Your music has contributed to a heightened sense of pride in our band and the Carlisle community surrounding this important day on our annual calendar.
We will perform as a combined band again this year and hope that you will join us. We look forward to seeing you and having time to catch up! So that we can plan for this year, we ask that you please register to participate via the website or email Mr. Mikesell with your contact information.

See you soon!
The Spring Banquet is typically a send off for our seniors. The underclassman are also recognized by name to receive their letter for their band jacket that they are eligible to buy sophomore year and stars for years in band (for their band jacket also). The band director has a speaker that has some type of ties to him or the band speak about band and how music has impacted his/her life. During the band year a senior takes pictures and video of the band. He/she presents this at the banquet.
This year we are trying to take this banquet back to its roots. It used to be called the Formal Banquet up to 3 years ago. That is because the banquet was held at Dickinson College (at a cost of $13 per person!) and Mr. Rohrer encouraged the kids not to wear jeans. Although we are having it at a fire hall, we are catering it this year at $6 per person. We hope you and your immediate family will attend. I know the kids love coming to this banquet to see all their band friends!
