There is cause to celebrate this weekend! All 3 of our winter groups competed in WGI regionals yesterday and all 3 groups did exceptionally well! Winds and Percussion placed first in their groups and Guard placed 2nd, missing first place by just 0.6 points! What amazing groups of kids! It's so nice to see all of their hours of hard work pay off.
The next round of dues ($250) to be turned in is this coming Thursday, March 5. After that point, only $250 of the $1500 is left. The final $250 can be waived with 25 volunteer hours with the band in the winter season. ALL volunteer hours must be tracked on the Volunteer Tracking Form so that we have a record of volunteer work.
It is imperative that dues are paid promptly and kept up-to-date as the winter program relies heavily on dues payments.

Parent Meeting
There is a VERY IMPORTANT meeting for all winter parents this Tuesday, March 3 at 7 PM to discuss funding the rest of the winter season. Meet in the band room.
Fundraisers
- Strawberry sales concluded last week. Strawberries are expected to arrive Wednesday for pickup. We will communicate a pickup time when we have one.
- The February Calendar fundraiser has come to an end. Please turn in money raised this week prior to spring break so that we can get amounts added to student accounts. If your student filled out the entire calendar (bonus days not required) they will be invited to an ice cream party - those calendars can be turned into the white box in Mr. Cox's office.
- The first round of yard signs have arrived and they are CUTE! The next round of yard signs will be ordered next weekend. Place your order here.
Parent Chaperones
The concert band travels to White House, TN this Thursday for CPA. We are still searching for a couple of chaperones to go with the band. Meet in the band room at 12:45 PM and the band is expected to return at 7 PM. Having attended the CPA clinic last week, I can tell you it is a good show to hear! Sign Up Genius
Band Swag
The Winter Guard have 3 more big competitions this year, and the Winter Winds and Winter Percussion have 2 more big competitions. Be sure you've ordered your band swag to support your group! It also makes it easier for the kids to find you in the crowd. A small portion of each swag sale goes to the band.
Upcoming Events
- April 2 - MJHS & WWMS combined concert
- April 3 - Spaghetti dinner & a show (including a silent auction)
