This past Friday night, the rains came and left just as quickly and the clouds gave way to a clear and cold evening at Pennfield stadium.  To me, it was perfect football weather and nearly perfect weather for band.  

The game this Friday is at home as well against Lansing Sexton, the team that knocked us out of the playoffs last year.  If you remember that game, we had more fans there than they did.  I hope we get the opposite result this year.  Marching band call-up time is 6 pm.  Let's cheer our team on to another playoff victory!  (Attendance is required by the way)  

Last night was the Fall Concert for 6th, 7th, and 8th grade band, and also we added the new 6th grade choir to the mix.  I was shocked (in a good way) at how many people came out to see the concert.  It was literally standing room only in the auditorium.  I have always thought that band students are the best, but that's because they come from the best families who support their musical efforts.  Congratulations to all groups on a fine performance and a big thank you to everyone who attended the concert.
