AMB WEEKLY UPDATE 12-2-2024

Greetings band family! We all hope that you enjoyed lots of quality time and great food with your loved ones this Thanksgiving week. We are only three weeks away from Christmas break! So we have one big strong push to the finish line, and then all the things band will wind down for us until the next semester.

There are several things happening all at once, and I will be attaching this email to this post. We will also go over the itinerary with our students in class so that everyone knows the game plan.

THIS WEEK’S SCHEDULE

• Monday: no rehearsal
• Tuesday: no rehearsal
• Wednesday: no rehearsal
• Thursday: Band Rehearsal 3:15 to 3:45
• Friday: Football Game vs. North Shore HS (at Turner)
• Saturday: Football Playoff Game vs. North Shore HS (at Aldine ISD)

THURSDAY: We will have a short band rehearsal with all of the students who will NOT be auditioning on Saturday TMEA Region day. We need to see what this will look like for us and come up with a game plan.

FRIDAY: Phase 1 of TMEA Region Band auditions, if you are Flute, Bb Clarinet, Alto Sax, Trumpet, Trombone, Percussion. Everyone else is free this day.

SATURDAY: …is a little crazy. It is the continuation of Phase 1 TMEA students who have not competed yet (Piccolo, Bass Clarinet, Tenor Sax, Bari Sax, Bassoon, Oboe English Horn, French Horn, Bass Trombone, Euphonium, Tuba), and it will also be the Phase 2 of students who have advanced in the next round of region. ……and a football playoff game. 🙂

SATURDAY PLAYOFF GAME: vs. North Shore HS at Aldine ISD Thorne Stadium (we are the visiting team) - ticket sales will be posted soon.

The itinerary I am posting will go into more detail, and we will keep everyone updated through the week. Please read through the itinerary entirely so that you know what your responsibilities are for this week.
