Glen Rose Contest Results
This weekend the MEB placed 3rd overall at the Glen Rose contest, taking home Outstanding In Class awards in all captions!
We also debuted our new uniforms and flags, just in time for contest!
Booster Needs
Thanks to all who have donated to our ongoing concession stand fundraiser, and brought in coolers and a rolling cart! Your donations help us support the band.
The boosters are always in need of:
- Bottled water
- Canned soda, gatorade, or other single-serving beverages
- Individually-packaged, single-serving chips, candy, and other snacks for the concession stand
New this week – Ms. Crystal, our booster president, has put herself on the block! If the boosters receive 12 large multi-pack boxes of chips, and 400 bottles/cans of soda before the next home game (10/15), the top donor over the next two weeks wins the chance to pie her in the face!
Volunteers
Many thanks to our volunteers who keep the band fed and hydrated while we’re on the move! Thanks especially to Ms. Tran, Ms. Boggan, and Ms. McLain who led a group fitting and hemming uniforms; and Mr. Hunzeker who led a separate crew building our new sideline panels.
Middle School Colorguard
Colorguard starts this week at both HF Stevens and Richard Allie middle schools! Tell your 7th and 8th grade friends to come check it out!
