Post-Game Hang out...

Friday nights game was a huge success.
I think the band as a whole did a FANTASTIC job.
I was very proud of my trumpet section, though.
Thank you for making my, as well as Elizabeth's and Norian's, last-FIRST ball game such an amazing experience.
I was extremely pleased.

I'm sorry that I was so late on letting you guys know about the plans on the post game hang out.
I was quite angry with myself when everyone couldn't come. But, to those of you who did make it, thank you. It was a rather.... should I say, entertaining... experience. =]

To those who could not make it due to my last minuteness, I once again apologize, and want you to know that we will try to plan something very soon that everyone can make it to.

One thing that I do KNOW that we will have to get together on soon is working on our costumes for the Halloween game against Southside.
I believe this will not only be a fun experience but it will also allow us all to spend quality time together just hanging out as well as doing productive band work.
But we will figure that out in due time.

This week's game is away at Moody.
For a few select of you, this will be your first away game.
This game will be no different than last weeks game other than..we'll be somewhere else!
So don't fret over it, because I promise you, it will be just as fun and as exciting as the last.
I'm very excited about the first away game, myself.

No school tomorrow!
But be prepared to get back to work on Tuesday.
After all, we never stop working.
But we do have fun in the process, so its all good.

I would like to let you guys know that I will be checking flip folders this week.
Also, if it is all okay with Mr. McDaniel, we will be having a sectional on Thursday after practice.
Nothing too big, just make sure you're prepared.
I'll let you know more on Tuesday.

Don't forget that you're fundraiser stuff is due Tuesday!!!

I hope you guys have a good, long, weekend and I'll see you all on Tuesday!

WOO HOO! IT's Football SEASON!!!!

IT IS HERE... the minute you have all been waiting for!!! Our first FOOTBALL GAME of the 2008 season. All of your hard work and preparation is going to pay off on Friday night as the Talladega Tigers open the season against Smith Station at our very own Mary Dumas Stadium. How exciting to put everything together and finally have a chance to present it to a home audience.
A few reminders....

• When you leave school on Friday ... Take your instrument with you!! Do not leave it at the school. (you laugh... it happens)


• Uniforms will be in the ZEJH Bandroom. Because they are using Dixon while doing renovations on Graham we will have to make adjustments.


• All band members will meet at Dixon for warm-up. Warm-up BEGINS at 5:30.... be early... do not get in the arc late.


• Please remember that you will need BLACK SOCKS!


• Don't forget your MUSIC for the STANDS! (flip folders everyone!)


• Come prepared to have a GOOD TIME!

Trumpet Get-Together!

Heyy trumpets!

I recently talked to you all about coming up with ideas about our Trumpet Get-Together. I still have not had much feedback on that. I do have a few ideas, but not enough to decide what to do.

If everyone could please get together and think of some good ideas and let me know, we'll be able to get something organized.
Like I said, I have had some really good ideas come my way. You should all talk to each other about your ideas and vote and something. Because they are all VERY GOOD!

Don't froget about practice tomorrow, Thursday, August 14th, as well as the practices Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and the mini-camp on Friday.
We've only got a small amount of time left until the first game.

PRACTICE YOUR MUSIC!!

Oh, and don't forget, if you have anything you would like added to the blogg, just let me know and send it to me.
My email is anditwasallyellow_@hotmail.com.

I'll see you guys at school!

Thanks--
Jennifer
