Swedes Band
One Band, One Sound
Band in the COVID era
The Junior Swedes Band also spent the first two weeks marching and definitely started off on the left foot (which for marching is phenomenal!) They picked up on it very quickly and worked very hard and are going to be more than ready to march in the parades next fall! The group has since been focused on catching up from where we left off last year in March and have made amazing gains over the past few weeks! They have recently started working on learning the chromatic scale (which is no easy task for young instrumentalists!) and have been doing an amazing job!

Swedes Band Leadership Team Update
The Leadership Team has been busy helping guide the band program through these new rules and regulations due to COVID. We are working on designing new band shirts and are hoping to have a design made by one of our own artistic band students to have printed on the shirts. Gothenburg Leader has agreed to make the shirts for us! The Leadership Team has also been brainstorming performance opportunities for us for later in the fall/winter and are working to possibly plan a band family BBQ or dinner event to hand out band awards from last year. We have also started to think about our annual band family Christmas Party! Fundraising opportunities and the band uniforms were also discussed at our last meeting. We are just over half way to our money goal to purchase new marching band uniforms!
