HSS Band 2009-10.59 Spring and Summer Activities: Memorial Day Parade; spring trip, etc.

Hi Band Boosters,

Happy Spring to all of you!

To make it easier for all of us to manage our calendars, Mr. Burke has posted the schedule of activities for Spring and Summer, including everything from the Spring Trip to the Marching Band Clinics next August. There are a LOT of important dates to put on our calendars, so please check it over.

I especially wanted to mention the Memorial Day Parade for the Marching Band in Washington DC on May 31. As far as I know, this is the first time (or - the first time in a number of years anyway!) that Hayfield has had the honor of participating in such a large event. Please remember to save that date; more details about transportation, time, etc. will be announced as we get closer. (Also - note that there are three rehearsals scheduled the week before: May 20, 25, and 27.)

Here's the full schedule (it's also on the band web site):
