Thank you to all of our volunteers this weekend! Although Friday night was wet and dreary, your help made it enjoyable. Thank you for everyone who showed hospitality to Villa Rica and for your flexibility with the weather. Saturday was very successful because of our parental support as well. We were able to finish the drill, make great progress on the props, feed our students quickly, and restore our uniforms from the night before!
Let’s pray for great weather this week! The forecast is for it to rain some this week, we will rehearse rain or shine. Pack a poncho just in case.

Water Donations
It is hot and that means our band is consuming a lot of water! It is time for those water donations. Each member of the band (which includes the guard) is asked to donate $10 or 4 cases of water. If you are paying by check, please make it out to the CHS band boosters. You can also pay online at: https://chstrojanband.revtrak.net/trojan-band-water2/
Thank you for your help! The kids appreciate it! We take waters to every game and competition, so we need LOTS of water!
Prop Building
If you’re willing to help us build props, we can use your help on Thursday evening from 6:00-8:00 PM in the house behind the bandroom.
Legacy of Champions
Our competition, the Legacy of Champions (10/13/18), will be here before you know it and we need to make sure we get all of the volunteer spots filled. If you haven’t signed up yet, please do so as soon as possible so we can continue to prepare knowing this is all taken care of. Remember, all band students are required to work the entire day and parents/band boosters are expected to work at least one volunteer shifts during the event, but highly encouraged to commit to working the whole day.
The success of our event takes the support and efforts of ALL of our parents/boosters. So please take a moment and visit our volunteer page: https://chstrojanband.com/volunteer/. The most important part is to just be involved, so please take time to sign-up today!
There are also sign-ups for donating food and lending equipment! Don’t miss out on a opportunity to make a huge impact for our band!
