Centerburg Music Department

  Welcome back everyone! Just a reminder that we have marching band practice (full Ensemble) this coming Wednesday and Thursday evening from 6-8 PM .  Attendance is mandatory.  All brass and woodwind players will need to be sure they have a LYRE for their instrument for this Thursday as we will be doing the pre-game and you'll need your flip folder attached to your instrument.    Lyres are available at most music stores...BUT are peculiar to the make and model of the instrument.  They ARE NOT a one-size-fits-all thingy! Next week we begin our Wednesday evening and Thursday afternoon band practices.  There will most likely also be some sectional rehearsals as needed, but we will reveal those to you once we can meet as a band staff to determine the times. NOTE:   "IF" you are a fall athlete then, as usual and as it has been done for 25 years, you should be willing to miss one after school athletic practice per week to attend Thursday afternoon ba...

 Greetings to all our wonderful TPMB Members and their families! I hope your summer has been fun so far and you've had time to relax and unwind  from the end of the school year!  Thanks to all of you who participated in both the Memorial Day Parade Ceremony AND the USA Days Parade.  A special thanks goes out to Mrs. Teschler and Mr. Lunder for stepping up to the Plate to take charge for the USA Days Parade.  I have literally been all over the country for over a month, and as I write this, am still 1500 miles from Centerburg....but thinking about you nonetheless! Just a couple things so you can get ready for camp!  SEE BELOW🠋 1.  By now all band members should have enrolled in the Marchingbandmovement.com course.  I had sent you the link back in May and told you to please go through some of it so you were ready for camp.  Each night of the first week of camp we will send out a short video assignment for you to complete.  These are marc...

Attention all TPMB Members and Families... 👀 The band staff will be offering 2 marching band field trips during the week following band camp this season.  The first one is a FREEBIE and will take place on the afternoon of Sunday, August 3rd.  It will be a trip out to West Holmes High School to watch a rehearsal of the Phantom Regiment , one of the corps that we'll see in competition the very next night in Canton.  The 2nd trip is on Monday, August 4th to the "Innovations in Brass" Drum Corps Show at the Football Hall of Fame in Canton and the student cost will be $25 per ticket .  We will send the registrations and permission slips out via Google Classroom / email so please look for them within a week and a half or so! NOTE:   If you know of someone who is not receiving the emails from us please have them contact the CHS Main Office, as they most likely have the wrong email address listed on the school's Final Forms, which directly coincide with all group emai...
