What an amazing two weeks capped off by an awesome performance on Trojan Night!  Now that everyone has gotten some rest, we have some people we need to thank!

This year the Band Boosters had an interesting challenge; feed the entire band and staff lunch and dinner off campus.  We were humbled to have churches and a local business assist us in our endeavor and without them, we couldn’t have done it!!  First Baptist Church, Complete Service and Renovation (along with Midway West), Great Savior Baptist, and Southern Hills Christian Church partnered with us by providing and serving dinner each night!  Their participation and encouragement were deeply appreciated. We also had many parents as well as grandparents come to serve, cook, and clean. These efforts made band camp even better for all involved and we cannot thank you enough for your support! It was a tremendous week capped off with a spectacular turn out for Trojan Night dinner and performance. We served just under 600 people dinner!!!

Please remember that the candle light ceremony has been moved to August 10, following practice. Also that night will be the Yankee candle fundraiser kickoff and a parent introduction to field show volunteering, to include pulling the flag. It will be a fun night to meet other parents and discover how you may want to volunteer.
