Band Update for 5/2 - 5/8

A very busy week ahead with many of our final performances and events for the year. First congratulations to our 23 band students who performed at the KSHSAA State Solo and Ensemble Festival on Saturday! Results can be viewed HERE. Congratulations as well to Jazz Ensemble who performed at the KCKCC Jazz Festival and then to our band and guard members who performed with the BVW Chorale and Chamber Singers In San Diego! A showcase of terrific music making over the past several days!

Our Band Banquet and Senior Recognition are Monday evening. Dinner begins at 6:00 PM and Awards at 7:00 PM In the BVW Commons.

Thursday is round 2 of our Color Guard Audition Clinics and the first evening of Drumline Audition Clinics. 

Friday, May 6 Is Nacho Jazz! Come celebrate our Jazz Band in their final event of the season and give our LKMS and PRMS Jazz students a big welcome as well! 7:00 PM - BVW Commons. We do need some help with the Nacho / Taco Bar - see info HERE.

Spring Band Concert is Monday, May 9. Students need to report by 6:00 PM. Concert begins at 7:00 PM in the PAC. Please double check your black concert attire - if you don't have black dress shoes, marching shoes work fine.

Then in 2 weeks we have our Marching Band Kickoff for the 2022 season on May 19. This is our first rehearsal for ALL 2022-2023 band and guard members. We then we close out the evening with a meeting for all parents and band members. Our pre-season and fall calendar can be found HERE.
