2012 MS Honor Band Information and Links to documents

Greetings!

This year, the District II Middle School Honor Band will take place on January 20th & 21st, 2012 at David Douglas PAC. Conductor will be Dan Ogren.

We suggesting that you collect fees IN ADVANCE of making official recommendations in order to guarantee that your students will attend the event. I like to use this Nomination letter with my students. Feel free to edit as needed to suit your situation.

Deadline for recommendations is November 12th, 2011. As usual, please rank your students and include any pertinent information as needed for assignment of parts. There is a 10 student maximum, and we will do our best to include as many of your students as possible.

Last year we had quite a few cancellations, so I am asking that you only send names of students that are a SURE BET to attend the event.

Honor Band venue changed to Warner Pacific College

Please inform your students and their parents/guardians of this change.

In light of the pending strike situation at MHCC, it was decided to use a different venue.

Please also make sure participating students have received the schedule, medical form, and contract. These items, along with the $35 fee are due during registration on Friday, May 13th.

Thanks!

Middle School Honor Band

The roster and documents for the 2010-11 Middle School Honor Band are uploaded onto Google documents. The music came in today and we will work hard to get packets mailed out as soon as possible. One item was back ordered, so we plan to wait for a week or so to see if it arrives on time. Look for packets in about 2 weeks. Included will be a schedule with more details about the two day event on May 13 and 14th. Conductor is Andy Nelson.

The medical release form and contract need to be returned by every participant by May 13th along with payment of $35 made out to OMEA District 2. Students can turn those things in during registration.
