Junior High Honor Band

Congratulations to the following students who have made it into the Junior High Honor Band:

Hannah Berglund - 2nd trombone
Katie Cook - 5th trombone
Josh Nostrand - 2nd baritone horn
Cameron Sewell Snyder - 3rd alto saxophone (4 accepted, 15 auditioned!)
Marc Anderson - 2nd tenor saxophone
Cayce Douglas - 3rd tenor saxophone
Celine Brundridge - 7th clarinet
Chloie Newsome - Baritone saxophone

Thank you to everyone for putting in the effort to try out, it was much stiffer competition this year than in the past.

We should be receiving the music shortly. Our director this year will be Dan Neece, and he is very excited to work with you.

Honor Band will be held on January 16th and 17th at Chico State University. The Oxford Suites has a block of rooms set aside for honor band students and families, as you will need a room for Friday night, January 16th. The room includes a complimentary breakfast, and snacks Friday evening. The hotel has a nice pool so you can relax after a long day of playing. 
Please let us know if you are in need of directions to Chico State or Oxford Suites. Parents are responsible for transportation to and from Chico, and are always welcome to sit in on rehearsals. Regular school clothes are fine for rehearsals; dress clothes for the concert on Saturday: Dresses, nice pants/shirts, guys wear a tie. There is no charge for the concert, and it is a truly amazing experience. 

Congratulations to all!
