Dear Band Boosters,
What a great concert last night - kudos to the musicians (and their director!)
Next Tuesday, June 8, please join us for the Tri-M music honor society event. Details will be posted on the band web site.
Graduation Lunch:
On graduation day, Thursday, June 17, band students who are playing at graduation will stay at school after dismissal. Boosters (band, chorus, orchestra) will provide them with lunch. We need some volunteers to help organize the lunch and serve that day. If you would like to help coordinate the food/drinks, and/or if you are able to help out that afternoon, please reply to bandlsm@gmail.com
Introducing a Movie Project: "A Band of Volunteers"
Long-time band parent Che Russell has shared a great idea with us ... he was inspired by a friend's band booster organization who made a video to promote their booster group. You can watch the video at:

At the May Band Booster meeting, the Hayfield Band Boosters decided to make our own video to encourage participation in boosters.
Nick Milton (with his wonderful camera and computer skills!) has volunteered for the project. What we need now are photos -- mainly photos of parents doing band booster things -- they don't need to be photos from only this past year, so if you have photos from band events that you'd like to share, please send them to Nick at nick@innergeekstudio.com.
Also, if you're interested in helping with this project (planning, ideas, music, captions, etc.), please let us know -- the more the merrier! Our goal is to have this finished this summer and ready to unveil at the Parent Coffee held during the first week of Marching Band rehearsal in August.
Many thanks to Che for taking the initiative on this project, and to Nick for volunteering.
Finally, I'd like to thank the parents of all our senior band members --- you ALL will be missed .... each of you has contributed to band, and your help and support have been appreciated. Many thanks to the parents of:
Jordan Barber, Alexander Bring, Mikala Brunson, Megan Burton, Jeremy Center, Lauren Citron, Danielle Cotton, Ryan Cupit, Alex Dubay, Daniel Garcia, Sergio Gonzalez, Samantha Haas, Molly Hall-Harvey, Amanda Hess, Kevin Honorio, Daniel Joseph, Matthew Keeports, Tammy Kiser, Jonathan Larzalere, Elizabeth Lehman, Alyssa Loyola, Marvin Manassa, Stephen Meyer, Mghan Monroney, Nicholoas Moore, Jessica Musman, Samuel Ogbe, Mark Parmley, Rebecca Reed, Andrew Tuck, Laura Wagner and Hannah Williams.
We're going to miss you and your talented students!
Proud to be a band parent,
