Important Information

Chamber Winds is going to the UW Band Festival on Tuesday - We were un-waitlisted! Boys and Girls Basketball Teams are in the Playoffs. Upcoming Concert on February

UW Band Festival 27th - Symphonic Band, Chamber Chamber Winds was moved off the waiting list for Winds, Jazz 1 and Jazz 2 this festival last Friday. I got a bus for us, sent out email about the trip and we are working on collecting the paperwork that we need (Permission slip from every student) It is a really great festival and so I jumped at the chance even though it is last minute. We will perform “Give Us This Day” and then receive an onstage clinic. Because it is a late notice trip we will not be spending the whole day there as we typically do. Please see the emails for all of the details. Savannah Trip Parent Meeting - February 20th We are having a meeting to go over details about this trip. It is at 7:00 in the Band Room. Jazz Ensemble 1 folks need to have one parental representative from the family there, please. Basketball Playoffs Both girls and boys teams are in the playoffs and so there will be a few more games for the pep band to play at. These are always exciting time and if they are successful they will be able to go on to the state competition in Tacoma which happens March 6-8. The tricky thing about playsoff is that we don’t know when they will be playing for sure because it changes based on whether they win or lose. I will do my best to outline it for you and let you know which games we will be playing at. Boys play on Tuesday (we are playing this game). if they win, they play on on Friday at Jackson (we can’t play this game) if they win, they play on the 21st at 8:00 (we WILL play this game) if they lose, they play on the 21st at 6:00 (we WILL play this game) if they lose, they play on Thursday (we can’t play this game) if they lose a second time, they are out... if they win, they play on the 18th (we can’t play this game) if they win, they play on the 21st at 6:00 (we WILL play this game)

Girls play on Wednesday (we WILL play this game). I can’t make it but Mr. Schwab will help the band. if they win, they play on on Saturday at Lynnwood (we can’t play this game) if they win, they play on the 22nd at 8:00 (we WILL play this game) if they lose, they play on the 22nd at 6:00 (we WILL play this game) if they lose, they play on Saturday (we can’t play this game) if they lose a second time, they are out... if they win, they play on the 19th (we can’t play this game) if they win, they play on the 22nd at 6:00 (we WILL play this game) I’m attaching the brackets to this newsletter so you can follow along yourself. Disneyland Trip Payment The next Disney payment is due on Feburary 28th. Free Piano Contact Barb Oakley at [email protected]. “I have a friend who has a neighbor that is giving away a free piano. This is an 80 year old upright Kimball piano. It is solid oak and has a dark brown stain. It has a good sound and a nice touch. If you or someone you know would like this piano, please get in touch with me asap.” Free Concert at Cornish Cornish Music Series extends an offer of 10 free student tickets per school to: Marty Ehrlich and the Cornish Contemporary Big Band Thursday, February 13 at 8pm PONCHO Concert Hall, 710 E Roy St, Seattle “It would be hard to conceive of a player who sounds less like anyone else and more like he’s speaking directly through his horn than Marty Ehrlich.” - James Hale, DownBeat Stalwart NYC saxophonist and clarinetist Marty Ehrlich leads the Cornish Contemporary Big Band in a concert of his compositions. For tickets and more information: http://www.cornish.edu/musicseries/detail/marty_ehrlich_and_the_ cornish_contemporary_big_band Please contact me to obtain your tickets! [email protected] We hope to see you there, Megan Calendar Change Because of our Disneyland trip we are not able to do the concert on April 3rd as originally planner. I have moved the concert to April 1st. For real. We will play things that we are taking to California. This will include all concert band students, not just those who are going on the trip - at least that is my plan at this time. If it changes, I will let you know. 2014 College Planning Night – Feb. 13 All District sophomore and junior families are invited to attend the 2014 College Planning Night at Meadowdale High School. It will be Thursday, February 13 from 7 to 9 p.m. starting in the Great Hall.

The keynote speaker will be the Director of Admissions for the University of Oregon, Jim Rawlins. There will then be three breakout sessions on topics ranging from financing a college education, writing an effective college admission essay, technical college opportunities and college athletics. There will also be sessions available in Spanish.
