Just a reminder of the upcoming schedule for those participating in the Memorial Day Parade:

Wednesday, May 20, 2015 – 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM (Wilson Middle School) for all students and any alumni who wish to attend. (rain or shine)

Friday, May 22, 2015 – 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM (CHS Band Room) for all students and alumni. (rain or shine)

The parade will be held on Memorial Day, Monday, May 25, 2015.  Combined band participants must report by 8:15 AM to the corner of Hanover and North Streets.

It is with great honor and respect for all that she will bring to this position of leadership with our band – and therefore it is a pleasure to announce that Sarah Ebert is the new drum major for our CHS Marching Band!

Congratulations Sarah!!

URGENT HELP NEEDED: Please consider helping for one car show shift. I know this is a busy time of year for each of you, please find four hours to help make a difference in our music program. Remember the money raised through the concession is a primary source of fundraising to help support our band and music programs. We need everyone’s help to ensure that we can continue to provide instruments, transportation, uniforms, and all the necessities for our children’s music goals. Please see the list below for where you can help this weekend and contact Lisa Burley at concessions@carlislehighschoolband.org to sign up and receive free parking and entrance passes or go to the link below. http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D4CAEA622AAFE3-import1/25635262 Continue reading “Car Show – Urgent Help Needed” →

The first marching band rehearsal of the year will be Tuesday, May 26 from 7pm – 9pm in the band room. Any student who is interested in participating in the marching band for the 2015-2016 school year should plan on attending this rehearsal WITH their instruments!  Please invite any student who may have expressed an interest in joining the marching band, to attend this rehearsal!  Click here for an information flyer! 

Any student who needs a school instrument for the marching band season should plan on arriving at the meeting between 6:15pm and 6:30pm, when instruments will be distributed.

 

The next car show is fast approaching!  Friday, May 15th-Sunday, May 17th is the Import and Kit Nationals Show.  Please remember this is the biggest fundraiser for our students and the band as a whole.  Without volunteers and a 100% staffed concession stand we cannot provide the necessary funds to support our students over the next year. Please consider signing up for 1 or 2 shifts. No experience necessary for most positions and you will get to know other band families. Volunteers are provided free parking and admissions to each car show when you sign up to volunteer. Any questions please contact Lisa Burley at concessions@carlislehighschoolband.org.
