Milwee Band Football Performance Update

9/30/2019

0 Comments

 
Hello Milwee Symphonic and Concert Band!

It was great seeing you all on Saturday! What a FUN event full of great food, games, and water balloons!
Last week, I sent out an email (also posted on Skyward, and website) with the details for next Friday’s exciting performance at Lyman High School!
As a review:
Football Game Performance at Lyman High School.
Student Dress: Milwee Green T-Shirt, Jeans, Shoes, Socks, Belt
Time: Drop off at the auditorium between 5:30 and 6pm. No later than 6pm, please. Pick up is at 9:30pm, no later than 10pm.

We are performing at Half-Time of the football game! The cost to enter the game is $7 (I think!), parents do not have to be there, but are strongly encouraged to come cheer on your student! 
On the Files/Handbook page on the website is the permission form for this event. Please fill out and return. Feel free to return electronically by scanning the completed form and emailing it to me; or print, sign, and turn in!
Students will receive a hard copy tomorrow or Wednesday in class.

**PARENTS!**​​​​​​​
We are looking for a few more chaperones to help at the event. If you can stay from 5:45 until 9:30 and help us keep an eye on our wonderful kiddos please sign up here! You do get a free ticket to the game for your service, and to be fair, we are going to give out these free tickets on a first come, first serve basis.
You must be SCPS dividend approved to chaperone. Click the link to fill out your application (it takes only 2-3 days to get approved!)
That’s it! Thank you so much for your support. See you Friday!

Band Social Parking Info

​Hello everyone!
 
Fundraiser Reminder & Request
First, is a quick reminder that our last fundraiser turn-in day is next Monday, 9/30. It’s the last BIG PUSH! Parents, please bring in that brochure to work and ask your co-workers to chip in! Its such an amazing cause – show them what we do here and how good our music program is!
Here’s a youtube recording of our Jazz Band last year: Funky Cha Cha – WOW!

***We are a short of our goal this year, by about $6K. Everyone is expected to do their “fair share” of fundraising ten items, or about $100 worth of donations, to help keep our actual “band dues” at $25 for the year (other schools have a mandatory $150 fee to be in band). We have not raised the price of our band dues since I’ve been at Milwee because we’ve made our fundraising goal each year and I want to make sure we have enough resources to keep our program healthy and strong. Dues and fundraising goes to pay for purchasing new music, instruments, and hiring instructors.
THANK YOU!
 
Band Social Info:
 
I am so excited to share a fun day on Saturday! It’s going to be “warm” – so bring an extra water bottle or two!
 
The Band Social is at Secret Lake Park in Casselberry from 12pm to 3pm!
We have a number of activities planned such as Kickball, Basketball, EATING, and even a Water Balloon Fight! The boosters will have plates/napkins/cups/cutlery, just bring a “casserole sized dish” of food and there should be enough for everyone!
 
Also! To store the water balloons, we need to store them in coolers filled with water (they don’t pop this way)! If you have room in your car, and a spare LARGE cooler or big Bucket, please bring it! This should be a nice way to “keep the kids cool”!
 
Attached is a MAP with Parking Info. There are two lots to choose from: North and South, and they are accessed from different roads. The main road to get to the park is SEMINOLA BLVD, then you choose from either IVEY RD or SECRET WAY. See the attachment for more details. 
 
Lastly, overflow parking can be long the street of SECRET WAY. Please do not block driveways and be courteous of home-owner’s yards. We want to represent the school in the best way at all times.
 
See you there!!!!!
