Band Jam

Dear Band Parents,

I hope you are well! This email is our final reminder for Thursday night's "Band Jam." The band jam is a concert featuring all of our bands here in New Fairfield. From the elementary school the Presto Ensemble will be participating, as are all the middle school and high school bands.

There was a miscommunication regarding start time. Normally middle school concerts start at 7. However, the starting time was set at 6:30pm and I was not aware. Band jam will be begin at 6:30 but the report time to the HS remains the same (6:15pm). Presto ensemble will be performing first. 

Attendance at Band Jam is mandatory, but there is a conflict with Shining Stars. Students with that conflict are excused from Band Jam. Please contact me if there are any other issues. We obviously need a good turn out for the event to be both fun and successful. The high school band boosters will also be serving treats after the performance.

This is an exciting event that includes performing band ensembles from 5th-12th grade.  It is a great opportunity for students to experience the evolution of the New Fairfield band program and participate in a collaborative, fun setting with students across the district!  Students will get to enjoy some amazing music, and we will get to play one song combined with the elementary & high school bands!
