MLK Camp & Rehearsals UPDATE

2021-01-19T10:57:09-07:00

Hey everyone! So we are still in Phase 1 this weekend. We are anticipating moving into Phase 2 at the beginning of February to coincide with Winter Sports, depending on the decisions made at the district level. The good news is, even with limited rehearsal time, we are getting a lot done musically! MLK Camp Since we’re in Phase 1, we are limited to 2 hours at a time. We are using the same floor as last year, so we are not having a floor painting day. To be honest, our floor is too beautiful not to use again! Saturday, January [...]

Indoor Percussion Camp Update

2021-01-19T10:43:31-07:00

Hello all, Our camp is still scheduled for Wednesday, December, 30 through January 2. After several conversations with our school administration over the past few days, we have to move forward utilizing Phase 1 protocols. In Phase 1, we are only allowed to rehearse in groups of 10 and for 2 hours a day. Our camp schedule will be a combination of in-person and virtual instruction to accommodate district guidelines. Because of these recent developments, I have created a schedule to maximize our rehearsal times and allow us to not lose too much momentum as we officially begin the season. [...]

2020-12-14T16:27:51-07:00

Hey team, A few important updates as we progress into the last few weeks into the semester: Rehearsals this week Despite SHS switching to full remote learning, we are still going to have rehearsals, albeit a little different than we’re used to. We are back in Phase 1 for the time being, so we are staggering start/end times to keep our cohorts small and spread out. Each group will report to their location (not the band room). It is important that you have your sticks/mallets with you as nobody will be allowed in the band room. We will be outside the [...]
