The renovations to the music room are moving along, the 2013-2014 marching band season is coming together though there is still quiet a bit of work to do with regards to squad leaders, uniform fittings, finding out who's in and who's not, health forms, marching band purchases, flip books and the list goes on and on.....
Anyway, the ahsmusic.org website is getting an overhaul and in my haste I deleted some important files so today I am uploading those deleted files.
You will find the Mp3 of the show in this blog, the letter I sent out about band camp (June 27) and health forms that were posted.
Please re read the letter to refresh your memory as there is a lot of important information with regards to Band Camp and other "stuff"
Enjoy!
Mr. B

LOTS OF INFORMATION
Below is the letter that was sent out in the packet
"IMPORTANT BAND CAMP INFORMATION!"
(Use your favorite magnet to post on your refrigerator – do not let your dog close to the information)
June 27, 2013
Dear, Band, Colorguard Students and PARENTS (YES, share this with your folks!)
I hope this letter finds everybody enjoying the upcoming holiday!
In about six weeks we will begin band camp- learning the music and motion to our show for marching year
# 15 “The Music of James Bond”
Enclosed is the final information for Band Camp, Londonderry and Allenstown Parades.
Remember to return your health form to me by July 24, 2013. Drop them off in the mail or by hand, bring them to an “optional” Wednesday night rehearsal, or uniform fitting.
Please see additional insert if you were not able to attend the initial Marching Music “Read Through”
BAND CAMP NEWS!
**BAND CAMP IS MANDATORY!**
Band camp is at Alvirne High School August 12-16, 2013 8:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
PLEASE, dress comfortably and appropriately for the weather – Hats and Suntan lotion are a must! SNEAKERS NOT SANDALS for safety and maneuverability. If you forget your sneakers you will be given a pair of DINKLES to wear – if you have no socks, OH WELL! Blister time!
YES, band camp is physical, hot, tiring, annoying, boring, and fun – don’t whine, deal with it – start yourself on a walking regime to “get in shape”. Eat a good breakfast and HYDRATE!
I have zero tolerance for students who are not prepared to work and have fun!
Remember, I’m old and I’m out there with you as well :-)
We will supply dot books (show coordinates), string and golf pencils. Your music must have the measures numbered. The more preparation you do the quicker we learn the show and the more time we have for FUN STUFF !
Students will need to supply their own brown bag lunch; as of this writing FOM is looking into some alternatives as well. As per usual FOM will supply beverage (water, water and more water) ABSOLUTELY NO SODA and/or ENERGY DRINKS.
We will have our traditional “March Off” competition with the MEGA TROPHY – “The winner gets to throw a pie in Mr. Bastien’s face – seniors, this is your chance :-)
Please fill out all necessary forms.
Freshman parents you will find a sample of the uniform and accessory order form by visiting the ahsmusic.org website to better prepare yourself for the Freshman Uniform Fitting on July 11, 2013.
PARENTS – BRING YOUR CHECKBOOK!
Let’s see – did I forget anything else?!?
Enjoy, the rest of the summer
Go to the back side for more important information
August 17 (Saturday) LONDONDERRY’S OLD HOME DAYS PARADE
The following is information regarding the Londonderry Parade August 17, 2013
• Arrive at AHS 8:15 a.m.

August 24 (Saturday) ALLENSTOWN OLD HOME DAYS PARADE
The following is information regarding the Allenstown Parade August 24, 2013
• Arrive at AHS 7:15 a.m.

Parades monies are used to help defray the cost of many things when it comes to running a marching band program. Band camp expenses, our performance at the Salem Band Show, band trips, (just to name a few). Attendance is very important to help put our best foot forward (no pun intended) as a premiere band program.
I also give a grade credit, so when school starts you will have grades “in the bank” for those times when your grades may not be doing well in band
REMEMBER: ahsmusic.org is your friend visit this site often for schedule updates and “other stuff”. I will also utilize EDLINE more this year ….so read those members.
Musically Yours,
Mr. Bastien
