Congratulations to the Marching Pride on winning Best Music, Visual, and General Effect in Class 5A and Overall at the Southwest Florida Games Competition! The Marching Pride placed 1st in Class 5A and won Grand Champion over the 4 other bands who competed. Our students made so much progress last week and have worked so hard. We are very proud of how far they have come. The performance can be found at: https://youtu.be/fYVPHrG1xjE.

Alternate Travel Requests: If you require alternate travel for your student for this week, the form is due to Mrs. Robinson by Wednesday, October 20th so that the form can be approved by Dr. Walcott. The Alternate Travel Form can be found on the band website under the “Students” tab at: https://www.prhsbands.org/2021-2022-info.html. Students who do not travel back to the school with the band will be responsible for making arrangements to have their instrument/equipment and uniform returned to the school. Just a reminder, as stated on the form, Mrs. Robinson can only release students to their parents and legal guardians.
 
Trunk or Treat (Thurs. 10/28): The Marching Pride is hosting their Annual Trunk or Treat event on Thursday, October 28th. The event will take place in the Faculty Parking Lot from 8:30-9:00pm. We’re looking for parents to participate by decorating their cars and passing out treats to the students. This year we’re asking all participating parents to only hand out peanut free candy. We know that this might be a small inconvenience, but it’s very important for the safety of our students. Thank you for your understanding and compliance. If you would like more information on this event, please contact our Band Booster President, Mr. Anthony Rowtie at kb2sfa@yahoo.com.

More details will be sent out in a separate email.
 
Band Picture Day Registration (Due by Sun. 10/31): Band pictures will be on Tuesday, November 9th. All students will have their pictures taken during class. Our photographer is asking for parent and/or student emails so that he can send out notifications to allow students and parents to view and pick out their pictures. Please register for these notifications at the link provided via email. If you want to view and/or purchase your band pictures, you must register and enter your information in the link provided by Sunday, October 31st.
 
Band Trip Meeting Postponed: We will have to postpone our Band Trip Meeting, which was originally scheduled for Monday, October 25th. At this time, the district has not yet approved the trip. Mrs. Robinson will schedule a meeting as soon as the trip is approved.
 
Concession Parent Volunteers: Just a reminder, parents who volunteer to work in our concession stand can earn $50 worth of credit towards this year’s band trip to Universal Studios. To earn the credit, parents must volunteer and work twice in concessions. The credit can only be applied to their student’s band trip account. We have only 1 home game left, but we are also offering concessions at the District Marching MPA event, which is hosted at PRHS this year.
