Thunder in the Hills Update
Thunder in the Hills is an annual percussion competition that the DS band hosts. This year it will be on 9/18 and there are 28 drum lines signed up to compete. This is all day event that requires all the help we can get. Students are required to volunteer for at least one shift(more details later). Adults can sign up here https://signup.com/go/UywWALb. There are opportunities for all kinds of support. This year we will be selling volunteer shirts for us to wear the day of the event. The design isn’t finalized but they are available for pre-order here. Note: These will only be available via pre-order. If you don’t order now you can still buy one of the standard event shirts. We are also looking for business sponsors to support the event. Sponsor packages range from $50 to $300. It’s an excellent way to support the band and advertise your business at the same time. If you own a business, or know someone who does, and want to support please fill out this form. |

Concessions Stand Update
I would like to thank the volunteers that came out to work in the concessions stand for Preview Night on Monday and for the scrimmage games on Friday. We can’t make this happen without our volunteers!
The Friday the crowd at the scrimmage was greater than we expected, so our plan to sell a few drinks and snacks became lines and a steady demand for drinks, candy, nachos, popcorn, etc. These three ladies totally rocked it! We need everyone to volunteer for at least a few shifts in the concessions stand during the football season and ask that you sign up now for the games that work best for you.
Thank you- Kevin Smith VP Concessions |

Band Sponsors Needed
Corporate sponsorship of the entire band program is another outstanding way to support the band and has some great benefits including recognition on the band website and Facebook page. The deadline to have a banner at the football game concession stands is quickly approaching. You can find more information on sponsorship levels here and here. |
