Hayfield Band Boosters 2014-15 (Message 6): Sewing on Saturday, August 30

Boosters,

 

Can you sew on Buttons?  If so, I need you Saturday, 10 a.m. to 12 noon.  We will be repairing uniforms to ensure they are ready for our opening football game, Friday, September 5.  I will supply the materials. 

 

If you can help, please go to Signup Genius   http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D49AEAD23A02-hssband3  as soon as possible so that I can determine if have enough support.

 

Pat

Subject: Hayfield Band Boosters 2014-15 (Message 5): Evening Rehearsal and Uniform Fitting

Greetings Boosters,

Last week was a busy week.  The students participated in full-day Band Camp.  The week was capped off by a pool party Thursday evening and the Pot Luck/Exhibition on Friday evening.  Thanks to all of you for enthusiastically supporting the students on Friday.  A special thanks to the following boosters for supporting these efforts.   We can't do it without you!

Pool Party:  Eva Romero, Norida Torriente, Celine Mahne, and Nancy Harris.

Pot Luck & Exhibition:  Eva Romero, Bobbi Yoshida, Jack Mika, Sonya Plata, Emily Comsti, and Daria Begren-Hill.

Updates

Uniform Fitting.   We will continue assigning Marching Band uniforms August 25 - 27 during evening rehearsals.  If your student has not been fitted, please ensure that he/she stops by the uniform closet on Monday or Tuesday evening.  There are still volunteer slots available if you can help with the fittings.  

Uniform Repair.  Calling all sewers!  I am looking for volunteers to help with uniform repair/alterations.  It is simple sewing--replacing buttons, hemming pants, etc.  We will meet at my home on Saturday morning, August 30, 10 a.m.  Please go to Signup Genius if you can help.

Tag Day.  Tag Day is of our major fundraisers for the year.  Students go door-to-door in the Hayfield community seeking donations for the band programs.  Residents are very generous and look forward to seeing the students in the Marching Band uniforms.  Students that participate in Tag Day earn credits toward the Spring Trip.  Please encourage your student to participate.  Our first Tag Day is Saturday, September 6.  

Support for Football Games.  To manage the volunteer requirements, we've divided the band into 5 sections:  Drum Majors/Section Leaders; Percussion (Drumline & Pit); Trumpets/Mellophones/Color Guard; Flutes & Clarinets; and Saxophones and Low Brass.  Each section is assigned 2 games (one Home game and one Away game).   The assigned section's parents will be responsible for filling all of the volunteer slots for the assigned game.  In addition, we encourage you to sign up for 5 additional volunteer slots throughout the year.  Most of the slots are in the Fall in support of Football games and Competitions.  We want to continue to provide the same level of support as in years past. However, we can not do it without your support.

Hayfield Band Boosters 2014-15 (Message 3): Pool Party and Pot Luck/Exhibition Next Week

Greetings All,

We completed Week 1 of Band Camp.  The show promises to be very exciting this season.  

Thanks to all of the parents that attended the Band Parent Meeting on Thursday night.  Information was disseminated about the Band program for the 2014-15 school year as well as the volunteer commitment required of band families.  I am attaching a summary of the discussion.  If you have questions about the band program, you can contact Mr. Burke at pburke@fcps.edu. 

Uniform assignment is underway.  Each student is assigned a full uniform (jacket, bibbers and hat) for the season.  The Boosters ensure that the uniforms are altered when necessary & ready for the start of the season.  Uniforms are always stored in the band room; the students do not take them home.  Thanks to the following Boosters for your help in assigning uniforms:  Kristy Baik, John Hishta, Kristy Moon, Eva Romero, Melvin Cloud and Patrick Cloud.  Couldn't do it without you! 

Updates

Pool Party.  The Pool Party is scheduled for Thursday, August 21 at the Hayfield Farm pool.  Students will be able to walk to the pool after rehearsal ends on Thursday afternoon.  We still need help with setup for the food.  Please go to Hayfield Band Boosters Signup Genius at http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D49AEAD23A02-hssband3  and let us know where you will help.

Pot Luck/Exhibition.  You will have an opportunity to preview the show during the Exhibition/pot luck scheduled for Friday, August 22.   Dishes for the pot luck will be assigned by last name as follows:  
 
    A-E     Entrees
    F-M    Side Dishes
    N-Z     Desserts

The Boosters will provide drinks.  We still need help with setup and clean up of the event.  You can sign up at http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D49AEAD23A02-hssband3.  I hope that you will be able to participate.  

Support for Football Games.  To manage the volunteer requirements, we've divided the band into 5 sections:  Drum Majors/Section Leaders; Percussion (Drumline & Pit); Trumpets/Mellophones/Color Guard; Flutes & Clarinets; and Saxophones and Low Brass.  Each section is assigned 2 games (one Home game and one Away game).   I've attached an updated summary of the game assignments.  The assigned section's parents will be responsible for filling all of the volunteer slots for the assigned game.  In addition, we encourage you to sign up for 5 additional volunteer slots throughout the year.  Most of the slots are in the Fall in support of Football games and Competitions.  We want to continue to provide the same level of support as in years past.  However, we can not do it without your support.

The Marching Band Clinic will be held the week of August 18-22 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day.  During that week, the students will have a Swim Party after rehearsal on August 21 and the annual Pot Luck/Exhibition will held on August 22.   More details on what you should bring for the pot luck will be coming soon.

Volunteers Needed

There are some near term volunteer needs that I need your help in filling.  The following help is needed:

• Uniforms  (2 people needed each night)
• Monday, August 11, 5-8 p.m. Organize the uniforms and uniform closet

We have attempted to remove the e-mail addresses of our 2014 graduates.  If your student is no longer in the band and you would like to be removed from this e-mail listing, please let me know.  Also, if you know someone who should be added to the e-mail list, please send me their contact information.
