Dear Band and Color Guard,
Congratulations to the band for earning all 1s at UIL yesterday, and as always, thanks to all the parent volunteers.
This week, the full band rehearses Wednesday and Thursday from 3-5:30 PM. Note that Monday's practice has been canceled. The game Friday is against Clear Falls HS, 7 PM, at Challenger Columbia Stadium.

Read below for information about volunteers needed to help wash uniforms, poinsettias for sale, and news from the band council.
Have a great week, Jennifer McBurnett, VP — Communications

HELP WASH MARCHING UNIFORMS
It's time to wash the marching uniforms again, so we need parent volunteers to help. They are 100% machine washable, so anyone who is familiar with washing clothes and has access to a washing machine can help. The band will provide the detergent as well. We need around 20 volunteers so that each person only has about 10 uniforms to wash.
After the students return from THIS Friday's game against Falls (10/25), please come into the band hall to pick up uniforms to wash over the weekend. The uniforms need to be returned to the band hall on Monday, 10/28: right after school or when practice ends at 5:30 PM.
If you are available to help us clean uniforms, sign up here! https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0f49a9ab22aafa7-uniform3

DECK YOUR HALLS WITH FESTIVE HOLIDAY PLANTS
Now is the time to order your holiday plants from the Falcon Band Booster Club. Support your favorite band and decorate for the season at the same time!
The gorgeous Poinsettias, exotic Holiday Cactus, and Norfolk Pines arrive in 6" pots with gold wrappers and are only $15 each! Poinsettias are available in both red and white. For something a little different, try a red holiday cactus or a fresh-smelling Norfolk Pine. These lush plants make splendid gifts, too!
The fundraiser runs from Friday, October 25th through Friday, November 8th. If you are interested in the white poinsettias, be sure to submit your order early — the number of these unique plants may be limited.
Order forms will be given to band students and are also available from the band website www.clhsband.org. If you have any questions, please contact Anne Anguiano at [email protected]
The plants must be picked up following the Winter Concert on Tuesday, December 4th.
Please see attached for the flyer.

Some of you may have already noticed the fliers in the band hall, but this is an announcement that we are having a HALLOWEEN REHEARSAL! Come dressed in a single or group costume and participate in a contest judged by the directors. I am so excited to see what awesome costumes y'all come up with!
