Basketball Band Roster & Schedule Over Break

12/18/2018

Basketball Band Rosters & Schedule for 1/3, 1/4, & 1/5

After consulting with Mr. Wheeler & Mr. Anselment, I have decided to cancel the band performances for the January 3rd, and January 5th games. I have also talked to Mr. Weitkamp about a potential performance for select choir students to perform the national anthem during those games.

The band performs on Friday, January 4th for the Marshall vs. RCHS basketball game at Richland County High School. This is now a combined performance between the Orange and Black Bands. Please contact Mr. Jones at [email protected] or via Remind101 should you have an unavoidable conflict with January 4th.

The reason for combining the bands for the January 4th game, and removing the bands' participation for the January 3rd and 5th games is to allow the students more time to enjoy the winter break. The band performs with the dance teams at boys basketball games. The dance team is performing on the January 4th, which is why the band is performing on January 4th.

Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions.
