News From the Band Room
ELCO RAIDER BAND
Week #12
Hi Folks - The marching band season has almost come to a close. Congratulations to the ELCO Raider Football team and coaching staff on a great season. Despite the cold and wind, the band enjoyed playing in the stands and performing our show one more time. The band banquet was a great success. Thanks to all of the band boosters who put in the time and effort to coordinate, decorate, and plan the evening. It's nice to get together to celebrate all of the hard work and effort of the kids and their accomplishments.
The next marching band event will be the annual Myerstown Holiday Parade. Report time to the school will be 2:00, inspection at 2:15, and departure immediately following. If you will be meeting the band at the staging area, students must be behind the Myerstown UCC Church at the corner of Carpenter and Locust street by 2:30pm. Mr. Fair must have a signed note from a parent/guardian permitting the student to meet us there or walk home after the parade PRIOR to Thanksgiving Vacation, so we have an accurate count and attendance for bussing. Students are responsible for all of their equipment and uniform. Also, we will be wearing our band uniforms and Santa Hats. I would encourage you to purchase your own Santa Hat to keep for this parade every year. I have a limited supply of Santa hats and they are not in the best of shape. Any questions, please let me know.
Our Annual Craft Show will be held on Saturday, December 7th from 9am-3pm at the high school. This is the band boosters' biggest fundraiser of the year. Please consider lending a hand to make this event run smoothly and efficiently. Watch your inbox for a time-to-sign-up form. More information is below and on the band booster Facebook page.
As always, if you have any questions, please email Mr. Fair dfair@elcosd.org
