UPDATE!

Just to let everyone know where we are..... the SCGC Winter Guard schedule has been published and is listed on http://www.scgconline.org/. We are in the process of securing a show idea and have considered several.

VERY soon we will have a parent meeting to answer any questions, as well, as give additional information to both the parents and the young ladies.

I will say that as far as the schedule is concerned, we are very fortunate that the contests that we are able to attend this year are all fairly close(Pell City, Oak Grove, Hoover). Yea! Championships will be held in Nashville again this year.

Fruit Sale!


The ZEJH band will participate with the Career Tech department in our first fruit sale! For the Ellis Emeralds a percentage of your sales profit can go toward your fees for the Ellis Emeralds. More details on actual amounts will be given when we kick-off the sale. Go ahead now and get together your contact list.

Rehearsals!

I just wanted to let you ladies know that I am so very proud of how you are doing on rehearsals! The light spirited atmosphere, hard work ethic and somewhat comical relief is adding up to be great days spent together. I look forward to seeing what the rest of the pep-rally routine has to over.

Practice, Practice, Practice! We want to look as good as possible on Homecoming.

Practice

At this point, everyone should have a copy of the song that we are learning the dance to, Burnin Up by the Jonas Brothers. If your C.D. did not work correctly, let me know as soon as possible.

Don't forget that we have practice on Wednesdays from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m. at the high school lunchroom.

Great job last week! I am looking forward to rehearsal this week.
