Members of the Class of 2022 and upcoming GHMS Squad Leaders will be performing Thursday evening at the Blue Star Mothers Memorial Ceremony/Concert.  They will need their summer uniform for this event; so, start searching now, not Thursday evening.  White marching shoes can be left at home; but some type of shoe is required for the concert - no sandals or flip-flops.  In addition, the band room will be open from 6:30-7:00PM for instrument pick-up (sousaphones/drumline) and immediately after for returns.  See final details below.

Memorial Day Parade - Saturday, May 28 - 10:00AM
The entire marching band will be marching in the annual Memorial Day Parade on Saturday, May 29.  The parade steps off at 10:00AM from First Community Church at 1st/Cambridge and ends at Oxley by Pierce Field.  Band members will wear their summer uniform for the parade (white band polo, blue band shorts, and white marching schools).  The band room will be open from 8:30-9:15AM for instrument pick-up and open for 30 minutes following the parade.  Call time is posted below.
**If your student has difficulty finding any/all parts of their summer uniform, please contact the Band Parents Association - [email protected].

On a professional/personal note… My sincere thanks to all students, parents, volunteers, BPA officers, and fellow music staff members for their continued dedication to the band program.  The pandemic knocked us down but I believe it will make the program even stronger in the future.  It has been an honor to lead your students on the field and from the podium.  I wish everyone the best in their future endeavors and look forward to hearing about the future successes of the bands in Grandview.

Go Bobcats!!!
Mr. Herrmann
