Now that we're all really ready for Spring to show up - next week, maybe? - we have that wonderful slushy feeling to look forward to when all that snow melts..
We have our Spring concert date, by the way: Sunday, April 28th, 7:00 pm at Lakeview United Church.
Also, in the interests of looking ahead, Intermediate Band has been booked for Wednesday May 1st at a seniors' facility - details closer to the date.
We have the schedule, so here's the scoop: (remember, for performances, we wear all black!)
Intermediate Band - plays on Wednesday, March 20th at 7:09 pm. You will need to be there, at the latest, by 6:15 pm. Note that we won't be having regular rehearsals that night, so please, take the opportunity to go hear them play if you can.
Senior Band - plays on Thursday, March 21st at 6:20 pm. You will need to be there, at the latest, by 5:30 pm.
****** Senior band members - after we are done at Optimist on Thursday night we will be going to the Western Pizza on Albert Street (across from Golden Mile, formerly Skara) for food and refreshments.
