Attention Marching Band.... LOOK!

  Plans for this Friday:  NOV. 1st The marching band will be attending the 1st play-off game in Reedsville, OH...a 2 and a half hr. / 131 mile trip each way.  Mr. D. is waiting to hear back from the administration concerning the plans he'd like to put in place, and you will all be notified as soon as we have things organized.  In the meantime, you can count on the following : 1.  We will most likely need to leave CHS around 3:30 PM 2.  Will suspend the "eating only during 3rd quarter rule" and allow various sections of the band to visit the concession stand during the 1st and 2nd quarters as well as during the 3rd quarter (after we perform the halftime show). 3. The music boosters will either feed us before we leave or provide a bag snack of some sort to bring along on the bus.  Not sure yet. 4.  We will most definitely not return home until close to, or around 1 AM!!

Play-Off Game Nov. 1st!!

  Attention all marching band members and parents...!! I was just notified that there will be "at least" one Play-Off Game.  The first one is scheduled for Friday November 1st and the marching band will be attending!  ( Please mark your calendars ). *  As of this moment we do not know who the opponent will be or where it will be played.  We'll keep you updated!

Marching Band Practice Schedule Change!!!

  Attention all CHS Marching Band Members... This Tuesday is our final marching band practice , but we will need to change the time of it from 3:00 to 5:00 PM due to some schedule conflicts.  This is the last practice before this Friday's senior show, so we're asking everyone to please mark their calendars and make any schedule changes on their end in order to be there! Also:  Ordinarily we hold the marching band banquet just before Thanksgiving, but with how many things are currently on this year's calendar we will need to push it back a bit...probably to just after the new year.  We'll keep you updated!

Music Announcements this week: Oct. 7th - 11th

  Congratulations once again... to the marching band for a super performance at this past Saturday's New Albany Marching Band Festival!  That was the last band festival of the season, and you ended on a high note! Marching Band Schedule, and future performances and obligations: * As we look at our football team's record thus far, it is obvious to us that we may very well be going into November...and then some...possibly .  Please remember that if you are a member of the football team, cheerleaders or band that it is your obligation to attend all performances.  Just a heads-up. *  High School Jazz Band will begin this coming Monday, Oct. 7th from 7:00 - 8:30 PM .  Jazz Band is an elective class that receives both graduation credits and grades, and attendance is obviously mandatory...even though it meets outside of the school day. * MVNU Jazz Ensemble in Concert (FREE) ...along with the flute choir and symphonic winds...this coming Saturday, Oct. 12th at 1:00 PM in the MVNU Ch
