 Just reminder that our Spring Concert for all students is on Wednesday, May 8th at 6:30pm in the Lyman High School Auditorium. ALL students report time is between 5:30 and 6pm: beginning band will go directly to the stage and Concert/Symphonic band students will assist getting ready for the concert or sit in the auditorium with their families plus instrument and music in hand.

If you wish to check in your instrument on the night of the concert, we will take care of transporting the instruments back to Milwee from Lyman, on your behalf.

 All students are to wear the same uniform that was utilized to at the Winter Concert.

Symphonic Band and Jazz Band students should wear the tuxedo uniform.

Thank you all for your hard work and support this year! The students and myself are very excited to share our final concert music with you, it’s going to be a fun show! We expect the concert to conclude at 8pm, with clean up/inventory drop to be concluded just after 8:15pm.
