A few things:
• We, the staff, would like to send out a great big thank you to everyone who was involved in making band camps successful this year. Without such a team effort from parents and chaperones, we could not accomplish as much as we do. Showband is not easy; two weeks of sore muscles, groaning and complaining, stinky clothes and sunburn noses. The end result – a great showJ Isn’t band great!
• Just a reminder…all Showband unit members ride to and from away events together on the bus. Family and friends are encouraged to attend but students are not permitted to ride with parents.
That’s it!
Mrs. Kelly
Students are reminded of their responsibility for the proper care and appearance of their uniform
once they are assigned at the beginning of the season.
Students are responsible for any supplies needed for their instruments - reeds, valves, oils, sticks, lyres and all repairs. Be sure your instrument has been repaired and is in good working condition.

“All members must maintain a passing record in all classes but one. You will not be permitted to try-out if your grades are not acceptable based on this requirement. If you make the unit, fail more than one class for any given grading period, you will be put on probation and will not be permitted to perform. Students failing more than one class will not be permitted to go on the trip.”

Charma Chaussard and Janet Opalanko want to acknowledge all the generosity and hard work displayed by the parents.
The CV Band Booster booth at the Pre-Season Football Carnival on Saturday, August 23rd was a huge success, both in monetary value, and in the friendships made inside the booth. We met many dedicated and caring parents.
It is a pleasure for us to coordinate events in which we get to meet the parents and the children. Thank you for the donations, time worked in booth, and most of all the stories and laughs that made the day such a success.
