Announcements and Music for Mar 28th

All,

A few motherhood announcements:

As I mentioned at the beginning of our season, our rehearsal room no longer has enough music stands for the size of our band. If you know you are going to arrive just before our start time, please bring your own music stand. We currently have a good working relationship with both music teachers at St Pete’s. Several “Hamilton” music stands were borrowed from the Junior Band room last night and not returned. We should not and do not have permission to be borrowing anything from the Junior Band room except for the Xylophone or Marimba.

I’ve also asked everyone earlier in the year to please store your instrument cases out of our limited walkways. For both our Librarian’s sake and ease of going and returning from our break, do not store your cases beside, behind or in front of your rehearsal space. There is a small practice room near the entrance to our room along with space under the storage cupboards at the back and at the side of the room near the sink. If your instrument case does not fit under your seat, please be considerate to others in the band and store it in one of these locations out of the way.
