I know this post is a little late in it’s arrival, but better late than never. It’s been a busy week!
This past weekend was all about teamwork. The bottom line to the success that this band experienced this past weekend was the team effort put in by the students, the staff, the roadies, the chaperones, and the fans. There is no one element that makes this band successful. No one group can take credit for that – but it is the combination of these elements working successfully individually and together that makes this band such a special organization. We are humbled by the love and dedication people have for this organization and we as directors are deeply grateful for the people that dedicate their time, energy, and talents with us on a weekly basis.
So to the students – outstanding performances! Thank you for rising above your exhaustion and putting in a great week of rehearsal and two great shows. Congratulations!
To the staff – thank you for sharing your amazing talents. You have put together one heck of a show, and I am so proud of the creative product you have put out there and the work you have put in to clean it.
To the parents – thank you – thank you – thank you – for your endless support. The students really appreciate looking out into the audience and seeing that you are there and that you make the effort to travel long distances to support them and cheer them on. The service you offer the band is essential to our success. We couldn’t have success without all of your behind the scenes work and we thank you for all that you do to make this a first-class experience for your sons and daughters!
Congratulations to all! We’re looking forward to the Metrodome!!!
