Municipal Band and Summer

Yesterday was the first municipal band practice of the new season and it was neat to see so many students there. Hopefully we can keep up the great participation. It is nice to get to play sax too so drummers please keep showing up. :-)

Well gang, summer is here and that means summer band and baseball, and softball, and camp, and vacation, and relatives visiting, and soccer, and the list goes on. While you are busy this summer, don't forget to get a little bit of practicing in each week. While it is hard to practice as regularly as you do during the school year, it is nice if you get some time in. It will help you to be better next year so that you can concentrate more on having fun in band rather than hoping that you get the right notes at the right time. :-)

I highly recommend practicing those scales. Since the scales start all over for a new year at Lakeview, there will be a new challenge for the first done in each level. If you would like to get the candy bar for being first, start working towards it now.

Have a happy summer! I will see many of you next week at lessons.
