Breaking Band Announcements from Mr. Kroeger!!!!!!
      5th-8th parents, please check your students' band grades. Several missing lessons and they have known for weeks. I have adjusted the grades to look like what they will receive at the end of the year if they don't get them completed.   
     Any upcoming 8th-12th band students interested in doing colorguard for this fall marching band season, Mr. Kroeger needs to know ASAP.
       Upcoming 7th-12th grade band students have the opportunity to do Winterguard next year. If they are interested, please let me know as I am beginning to look at logistics earlier since so much goes into the planning of Winterguard.
INCOMING 7-12th Graders please talk to or email Mr. Gross (shane.gross@k12.sd.us) if you are interested in showing at the State Fair in the FFA division.  You may show in FFA in addition to 4H.  Middle School students are allowed to be FFA members to participate in this activity.  

If you have any Coburn Receipts, Soup Labels, Box Tops for Education, Pop Tabs, Coke Reward Points, etc.   please bring them to school before 3:00 tomorrow, May 15th.  We would like to do one final sort for the year.  Thank you to everyone who has donated to these causes!

"The Incredible Story of Ruskin Park"
Available also in the school office
  Brett Selland spent nearly 3 years researching Ruskin Park and its history.  His research, which includes stories galore, pictures, articles, interviews and more, was compiled into a nearly 4 hour video account of the park.  The park, as you may know, was famous for the many bands that played there.  In keeping with the spirit of the park, Brett has offered his work up as a fundraiser for our SCW band programs.  He is donating the video sets (2DVD's) to the SCW band program for sale with ALL proceeds from the sales going directly into the band funds of our two schools.
  The sets of 2 DVD's full of history will be on sale for $25.00/set at the concerts in both Sanborn Central and Woonsocket on May 4th and 5th. After those two nights, the sets may be purchased by contacting any Sanborn Central/Woonsocket band member.  We do have some available in SC’s office.  You may also contact Brett Kroeger at Brett.Kroeger@k12.sd.us  or Brett Selland at 248-2364 or castaway@santel.net   Again, ALL proceeds will go to our band programs. Thanks much for supporting this effort!

Here’s a happy one for you.
