Band Banquet Video
Our year-end video will be created by Dylan Wagg this year. Please help Dylan by sending him some of your favorite band and guard photos for the video via social media or at Dylan.Wagg@gmail.com. Please try to send Dylan a variety of pictures from throughout the school year, not just from the marching band season!
SENIORS should send a baby picture, young child picture, and a recent picture to Maureen Dufresne at mdufresne5@embarqmail.com (digital preferred). Hard copies can be turned into the Band Office. Hard copies will be returned when we are finished with them. The deadline for senior photo submissions is MONDAY, MARCH 27 (first day back after spring break).
