BAND PARENTS' UPDATE

Greetings, GHHS Marching Band families! THIS IS THE WEEK! Pre-camp rehearsals begin today for squad leaders and drumline, with the entire Band all together by the

end of the week. I don't know about you but, I can't wait to get started with the 2022 edition of the Pride of the Bobcats, the Grandview Heights High School Marching Band!

1. IT'S (FINALLY) TIME FOR SUMMER UNIFORM ORDERS! The great news is, we have upgraded our summer uniforms for 2022, with lighter weight fabric and POCKETS in the shorts! Read more about the new items by clicking here to view the order form. Freshmen and new members are required to purchase summer uniform items as detailed in the form. Returning members are not required to purchase new items - but are certainly welcome to do so! We apologize for the delay and also the tight turnaround time that has resulted from it - but we need ALL ORDERS SUBMITTED BY NEXT SUNDAY JULY 24 to ensure we have the items in time for the Band's first performance. Please click here for the order form and submit yours ASAP!
2. VOLUNTEERING FOR BAND CAMP? First of all, THANK YOU SO MUCH! And secondly, watch your email for specific details and instructions, coming later this week. We'll cover where you need to be and when, what you do, where you can park, etc. Stay tuned!
3. BAND CAMP: Reminder that pretty much everything you need to know to get your student ready for Band Camp is summarized on the front page of our web site, which you can get to by clicking here, and spelled out in more detail in the 2022 Band Camp Newsletter, which is available by clicking here. Still have questions? No problem! Reply to this email, or better yet attend the optional Band Camp parents' meeting on Wednesday night at 7:30pm in the NEW Middle School commons. PLEASE REMEMBER THAT ALL MEDICATIONS REQUIRE A COMPLETED COPY OF THIS FORM AT CHECK-IN. 
4. MEET THE NEW DIRECTOR! Finally, don't forget that you are invited to an Open House on Wednesday night from 6:30 to 7:30pm in the NEW Middle School commons, to get to know our new HS Band director, Jennifer Olis. In addition to the opportunity to give Mrs. Olis a warm, Grandview welcome to our community, I'm told there will be ice cream!
