Any Remaining Band Forms for Grease?
Though forms and deposits for the band trip to Lorenzo’s Dinner Theatre we due Mon, March 3, Mr. Boltz is making a waiting list of those who desire to go but missed their spot on the bus. If the waiting list is large enough, he will schedule a 2nd bus. Currently we need 20 more travelers. Return materials to him immediately to assist in this decision.
Good Luck to Traveling Bands!
Good luck goes out to the HS Symphonic Band as they travel to Wicomico HS on Wednesday, Mar. 12 to perform in the MD High School District Band Festival. Our wishes also go out to the MS Festival Band as they make their final preps for their Thursday, Mar. 13 trip to Stephen Decatur HS for the MD Junior District Festival. Both groups will represent Mardela Middle and High School as they perform selections and sight read for judges and other school bands.
