Concerts and other really important dates

All three bands play June 14 indoors at the church at 6:30 Carey Wang, will play a song on the grand piano as well à IMPORTANT does BWW want an hour rehearsal post-concert (9:00 – 10:00???)

** concert attire***
June 12/19/21 black shoes, socks, pants/skirt, solid coloured (no logos) top
BWW on the 21st please have a shirt that matches the vest and wear your vest for Crofton
June 14…dressy casual (the church gets HOT)…solids or prints but no logos please…no flip flops either…due to the mass band seating, everyone please be on site by 6:15 at the latest in case we need to make any adjustments…decorum (not playing until asked, not talking once concert starts) will be even more noticed given the size of the full ensemble…remember O Canada and School Spirit (# 167/#152) in Yellow EE 1 book
June 14th concert…bring appies/desserts to share and we will have a social afterwards (maybe a short one if we opt to rehearse some more).
Think MUSIC (music with song order//uniform//stand//instrument//clip-on light and/or clips for wind) before going to concerts
