Don't forget  your uniform for tomorrow.  It'll be the same procedure as last week.  Those of you, who purchased new shoes may pick them up before rehearsal. White show gloves and FLHS Marching Bridgemen fleeces will be distributed as well.

We’ll shoot video performances for virtual competitions/adjudication every Saturday, which will be submitted to Tournament of Bands for judging for the following Saturday. All competition videos must be submitted to TOB by the Wednesday preceding the comp date.

In case of rain on any of the above shooting days, we will reschedule the shoot for either Sunday, Monday or Tuesday following the rained-out Saturday as we must submit by the Wednesday before the Saturday competition day.

Here’s an example:

Ø Shoot the performance video on 10/10, due by 10/14 for judging on 10/17

Ø Should it rain on 10/10, we’ll check the weather and reschedule the video shoot for the next best available day prior to the Wednesday deadline

Ø This will allow us three more days to still shoot and submit if we get rained out on any Saturday


Video shoot on 10/10 for comp on 10/17

Video shoot on 10/17 for comp on 10/24

Video Shoot on 10/24 for comp on 10/31

Video Shoot on 10/31 for comp on 11/7

Wind/Percussion Lessons

Every band member must join the Google Classroom page for Wind/Percussion Lessons.  I'm using this Google Classroom page as a means of strengthening the communication regarding our usual pullout lessons.  To the new band members, understand that this is not another class. Wind/Percussion Lessons are the same type of lesson schedule you had in the middle school. Please don't worry about it.  The code is:  am4wfoc
