CITRUS DELIVERY MONDAY 12/16

All students are required to pick up their ENTIRE order in the YHS Band Room between the hours of 2:30 and 6:30pm.  See you then!

Thank you in advance to our many parent volunteers, and to those donating food items throughout the day.  Your help is so appreciated and so integral to the success of this very logistically intense event!  Special thanks to band parents Adriana Beaudreault, Laura Lee Milhaven, and Karen Menduni for organizing the parent volunteers and food donations!

SAVE THE DATE

Our next concert performance is Saturday 2/8/20 at 7:00, in the YHS GYM.  This is our 12th annual Swing Dance and Concert.  All YHS Band students are required to attend.  It is both a concert, and a dance, and everyone is invited!  (Yes, parents, you are invited!  Don’t let your student tell you otherwise J).  This is an eagerly anticipated, well-attended and fun evening for our entire Yorktown community (each year we have many senior citizens and community members attend and enjoy the evening with us!).  More details to follow. A flyer is attached.

ALL COUNTY JAZZ AUDITIONS

Similar to NYSSMA, YHS Jazz Band students are eligible to audition for our Westchester All County Jazz Band.  Being selected is an elite musical honor and a fantastic opportunity to perform with some of Westchester’s most talented student jazz musicians!  Interested students should prepare a jazz NYSSMA solo, fill out an application and attend the audition.   You do not need to improvise to audition. The audition date is Saturday 1/11/20 Details are attached. See Ms. Kluga for an application. Applications are DUE to me by Friday, 12/13.
