Cavalcade of Bands

No one said it would be easy.

Topping last year is going to be tough. We had a very successful 2008 Marching Season. Norwalk Marching Bears won the 2008 Class V MAC Championship and 1st place at the Champs Bowl Field Competition in Orlando in December.

ThMAC champs 08 bannere 2009 Marching Season is fast approaching and planning is well underway for Mr. Smith’s FINAL Marching Show!!

Planning is also underway for our 27th annual home show, the Cavalcade of Bands which will take place on Saturday November 7, 2009. We are hoping (not promising) that the weather will be as nice as it was last year.

The Cavalcade of Bands is the single most important fundraising event of the marching season. The money raised at Cavalcade goes to funding the bands activities throughout the year and is necessary to operate a successful band program for our children.

We need everyone’s help to put on a great show.

First, get out there and sell those ads for our program book. Every student must sell at least $300 worth of ads. Sell more and lower your assessment. Get out early and get a jump start on everyone else. Information and order forms are found on the download page.

We also ask that you please sign up to volunteer and be an integral part of what will be an exciting day and evening of music and marching at the 27th Cavalcade of Bands! There will be signup sheets available at all of the band practices after the Boat Show. Sign-up early and be assured of the committee and time of your choice. You can contact our Volunteer coordinator, Vicki Tirpack vtirpack@optonline.net with any questions or requests.

A brief description of the various committees can be found here.

Get Ready -Graduation, summer break and back to band camp!! It’s right around the corner. We look forward to seeing you soon.
