Another big week as we enter the halfway point of the marching band season. This week we welcome our 8th grade band members to Bobcat Stadium! We will feature them during our halftime show this Friday.
Flip Folders Each band member received a flip folder from the band at the beginning of their freshman year. The flip folder allows your student to conveniently keep their music organized and transport it easily. If your student has misplaced their flip, it is their responsibility to replace it. Flip folders are available from Stanton’s Sheet Music (330 South Fourth St), Music & Arts (Graceland Shopping Center), Buckeye Brass (7445 Montgomery Dr, Plain City), or online. Flip folders come standard with 5 ‘windows.’ It is recommended you purchase extra windows to accommodate all the music distributed. Music/Flip Folders will be checked next Tuesday, September 20th (and periodically throughout the season) and is calculated into your student’s grade as class preparation. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. Evening Rehearsals We have three more Evening Rehearsals for this season and that number will not increase. All three rehearsals are considered required and will be calculated into your grade. Exceptions to the requirement are (1) for athletes who have traveling matches which return later than 9:00PM, or, (2) on a case-by-case basis as needed. Work and non-Grandview Heights activities should be scheduled around Evening Rehearsals; please submit the dates above to your work management or advisors. Our next night rehearsal is Thursday, September 15th, 8:00-10:00PM. Capital University Band Festival Grandview Heights High School Band Students are invited to participate in this year's Capital University Band Festival to take place on November 11-12, 2022.

Students in all three bands will participate in masterclasses led by Conservatory faculty and alumni and hear performances by Capital University's bands, as well as the Olentangy Orange High School Wind Symphony.
