Updates!

There is practice on Wednesday at Henderson from 6:30-9pm, please bring commitment forms. If unable to be at practice, please be sure to email Mr. Quinn about participating in the fall marching band season.

Car Wash on Saturday (Aug 9), 9am-2pm. A sign up will be at Wednesday practice, if unable to be at practice and can help at the car wash please contact Mary Burgoyne (484-266-0191) and let her know (she is the parent volunteer for the day). We could use another parent volunteer to help that day as relief or back up for the Burgoyne’s, let her know if you are available to help out. Please spread the word about our final car wash for the summer so that we have some cars to wash!

Thank you, in advance, for your help and support of the Henderson Band Boosters and Marching Warriors program!

Band Camp

Dear Marching Warrior Potential Band Member Families:

I got a call today from a parent to ask about band camp. It is listed on the website calendar but not specifically spelled out in any of the participation information.

Band camp is a two week home camp commitment this year. It will run 8:30-4:30, M-F starting August 11. (Timing for some sections may differ if additional staff needs to vary that.) Show night will be Thursday, August 21. (after a booster and band member dinner). There may be conflicts concerning that two week band camp commitment so when replying to Mr. Quinn about participation, indicate if there are any dates that your child is unavailable to be at camp or if there is other school sport commitments that week.

I generally try to bcc my information to band boosters and did not do so for my last email (program participation packet). The responses not to participate are getting sent Reply All while program participation is being sent to Mr. Quinn directly. I would like to suggest that if you want to indicate that your child is not participating, send that to my email. (letting me know that information will be helpful so that we can adjust our mailing list accordingly).

Program participation and questions about participation should be sent to Mr. Quinn at gquinn@wcasd.net. The commitment form is attached again for your review and submission as well.

Thank you,

Carolyn Best
