Hello PRIDE!
 
It has recently come to our attention that we need a drug agreement form signed by a parent and the student for our game on Friday. This applies only to grades 9-12. These forms were signed at the High School Orientation Meeting. 
 
If you and your child did not attend high school orientation this year to sign the form, we are asking that you come to the high school after PRIDE rehearsal today so that you and your child can sign this drug agreement form.
 
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and thank you for your efforts in helping us complete this task before our first game tomorrow! It is very important that we all make this happen and appreciate you all in advance!
 
As always, please e-mail if you have any questions. We will see you today at practice!
 
BEAT ETOWAH!
 
Go PRIDE GO!
 
Mr. Weaver
Ms. Palmer

​SOUTHSIDE vs. ETOWAH 3rd QUARTER MEAL REMINDER
 
Hello PRIDE
 
This is just a friendly reminder that Thursday’s rehearsal will be the last chance for students to purchase a $5 3rd Quarter Meal from the PMA.  The options are a hamburger, chips & a drink; or a Chic-fil-a sandwich, chips and a drink.  Mrs. Marbut will be at the Bandroom after rehearsal to collect money.  Only students who purchase a meal will be allowed to receive a PMA meal.
 
*Students are encouraged to eat prior to our report time on game day.  Please understand that students are not allowed to leave the band area during 3rd quarter due to the size of our program and the congestion of our stadium.  Every member will receive bottled water throughout the game. 
 
ALSO:  All Hornline members should bring $3 to school this week to purchase black gloves. 
 
Looking forward to a great performance! 
 
BEAT ETOWAH!!!
 
 
Go PRIDE GO!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
 
August Calendar: There is a printable version of our August calendar available online at: http://www.shs-band.com/calendar.html 

Coke Sale: Don’t forget that the PMA is hosting our annual Coke Sale!  Info online at: http://www.shs-band.com/blog/3rd-annual-coke-sale-aug-8-19 

Student Committees: Every student has been added to a special committee with an important assignment.  There are three teams or shifts for each committee.  The week it is the Alpha Team’s turn.  More info at: http://www.shs-band.com/blog/2016-marching-band-student-committees 

Gloves, bibbers & Shoes: Students who reordered bibbers or shoes will be issued their replacements this week once they arrive.  Don’t worry; we’ll work out any issues.  ALL HORNLINE MEMBERS should bring $3 to rehearsal this week to purchase gloves.  

Member Shirts: Member shirts are supposed to be delivered Wednesday of this week and will be passed out at Thursday’s rehearsal.  If and when (there always are) errors occur, we will work to fix them as quickly as possible.  

3rd Quarter Meals: After halftime students are given the majority of the 3rd quarter to cool off and grab a quick bite to eat.  However, due to the size of our program, it is impractical to allow student to leave our area.  Instead, the PMA offers a $5 Meal Deal that includes a sandwich, chips and a drink for all home games.  These meals are brought to the students in the stands.  This week’s options are a hamburger or a Chic-fil-a sandwich.

2016 Marching Band Student Committees 

8/14/2016

2 Comments

 
The PRIDE is first and foremost a family.  A safe place for our students to be together and support each other.  Like all families, we have chores that need doing.  Every member of The PRIDE has been assigned to a committee with a specific task or chore that the band needs to be done.  The overall goal of student committees isn't just to accomplish certain goals, but rather to give each student a feeling of ownership in the band.  


There are three shifts or teams.  Each week, teams will rotate responsibilities.  
​Click below to view committee assignments:

Descriptions: 

Lining Crew
The Lining Crew is in charge of ensuring all of the marks on our rehearsal field are clear and freshly painted each week.  This includes the white yard lines, sidelines, and hash marks; the pink tick marks, and the red numbers.   

Sound Crew
The Sound Crew is in charge of ensuring that all of The PRIDE's sound equipment is kept organized and is properly set up prior to rehearsal.  The Sound Crew should alter the director immediately if items are in need of repair or replacement.  


Water Crew
The Water Crew is in charge of bringing carts and coolers of ice water & sports drink to all outdoor marching band rehearsals.  The Water Crew should have coolers set up no less than 10 minutes prior to rehearsal.  Coolers are to be emptied and stored back in their proper location at the end of every rehearsal.  Members of this crew are allowed in the PMA / Water Storage room, but are charged with keeping it clean and organized.    

Field Equipment Crew
The Field Equipment Crew is in charge of ensuring that all field equipment is set up and in place prior to all marching band rehearsals.  This equipment includes, but is not limited to: yard line markers, drill aprons, poker chips, props (backdrops), and the drum major podium.  Members of the Field Equipment Crew are in charge of properly storing all equipment at the end of each rehearsal and should work in conjunction with the Field Cleaning Crew to ensure that the rehearsal field is left in perfect condition.  

Field Cleaners 
Field Cleaners are in charge of picking up all trash at the end of outdoor rehearsals.  Trash should be disposed of in the provided bins.  If the trash bins begin to overflow, the Field Cleaners are to take the bins to the school dumpster.  

Band Room Cleaners 
Band Room Cleaners  are in charge of ensuring that the main band hall is left in perfect condition at the conclusion of all rehearsals.  This includes putting away and stray equipment such as chairs or stands, checking cubbies for trash or food, making sure that instruments are put away properly in a case and stored in a cubby, and clearing the floor of any debris.  Band Hall Cleaners should notify the directors immediately if individual equipment is found to not be put away correctly or if items such as food are found in the band room.  

Historians
Historians are in charge of documenting all events of The PRIDE.  Members of this committee should be handy with a camera and be “people persons”.  Gopro videos, pictures, anything fun!

Audition materials and etudes for the 2017 Alabama All State Band have been published online at: 

​
http://www.myamea.org/aba/2017-all-state-requirements/


Students should download and print both the lyrical and technical etudes as well as the scale sheet and audition requirements information.  Percussionists should carefully read over all available material as their auditions are somewhat more complex.

Good Luck!
