Decorating Instruments/Equipment for upcoming Holiday Parades: It is a tradition of the Marching Pride to decorate their instruments and equipment for our upcoming Holiday Parades: Ave Maria, Naples Christmas Parade, and the Disney Parade. Students typically use lights, bows, and/or garland on their instruments. This week would be a great time to shop for these items, especially the lights as stores typically run out soon after Thanksgiving. Decorating instruments and equipment is completely optional, but we hope that everyone will consider participating. The Marching Pride also typically wears Santa hats/holiday head gear for these events. We have several Santa hats for students to borrow, but it’s strongly recommended that they wear their own hats if they own them. Students can ask their section leaders, captains, and/or drum majors for more details. 
 

Concert Band Attire: All band students are reminded that they will need their Concert Band Uniforms ready by Winterfest. Please order your uniforms now so that you have time to alter them when they come in. Click here for instructions.    
 

Solo & Ensemble and Auxiliary Solo Entry Forms (Past Due): All students who are interested in participating in this year’s District Solo & Ensemble MPA and/or District Auxiliary MPA should have already turned in their forms. Please see Mrs. Robinson if you did not turn in your form.
 
 
Indoor Auxiliary Contracts (Past Due): Please turn in your indoor auxiliary contracts at your earliest convenience. Indoor fees are not due until December 20th.
 
 
Disney Band Trip Forms (Past Due): Please be sure to turn in all of your required forms if you have not already done so. 
 
 
Third St. South Jazz Band Performances (Mon. 11/25): Our Jazz Bands will be performing at Third. St. South for the annual Tree Lightening Celebration. Both Jazz Bands will be performing from 6:00-9:00pm on 12th Ave. South just east of Third St. South. Please stop by for this very festive event! The call time for all jazz band students is 1:00pm in the band room in their proper attire. 
 
 
After School Concert Band Rehearsals (Week of 12/2): When we return from Thanksgiving Break, each concert band will have two after school rehearsals to prepare for WinterFest.
