Thank you to everyone who went to Surcheros last week for our Spirit Night! Just in the short time I was there I saw teachers, band parents/students, and band alumni. It was a fun night, and the food was SO GOOD!
There is a lot coming up as we begin the official Winter Season! We will host the first SCGC competition of the season at MJHS next Saturday! If you have not already, PLEASE sign up to volunteer your time that day, bring food for the hospitality room, and/or work concessions.
In February, which is somehow already right around the corner, we will start our weekends of competitions for all of our winter groups.

Volunteer Hours
Winter parents, please be sure you are logging volunteer hours. It is the only way we have to track your time. If you do not record your hours, we do not know you worked them, and you will not receive the $250 discount at the end of the winter season. You can always find the link to log hours in the sidebar of the blog.
Golden Bear Bash
The Golden Bear Bash is this coming Saturday. It is our band's biggest fundraiser of the year, and we need YOU and your student to come volunteer to help!
How to help:
- Volunteer your time!
- We need volunteers ALL DAY. Jobs range from opening and closing doors, leading guard groups around the school, letting guard groups know when to move to their next spot, etc. Super easy, not stressful, and even introverts (✋) can do it well.
- Bring some food!
- We are looking to fill our hospitality room with food! Whether you make it from scratch or not doesn't really matter. There is a list of what we are looking for on the sign up. Please consider bringing something with you that day!
- Work concessions!
- Concessions will be a huge fundraiser for the band that day. Be a part of it! We have multiple 3-4 hours time slots available all day. If you can work more than one, please sign up for that as well! Please note that hours worked in concessions for the competition are strictly for volunteer hours.
- Donate a folding tables or multi-outlet extensions cords. Please drop off at the school Friday evening or Saturday morning. They can picked up at the end of the competition on Saturday
Please take a moment to sign up as a volunteer for the day or to work in concessions.
If you are a winter parent, the Bash is an excellent opportunity to earn hours towards the $250 deduction for dues if you volunteer 25 hours of your time.
If you are not a winter parent, the Bash is an excellent opportunity to support our band program!
Student volunteers (band students and non band students) are also welcome to volunteer and earn volunteer hours towards TN Achieves or other clubs/groups.
This is our biggest fundraiser of the year, and we need all of you to help make it successful!
