I first want to thank the following people:
- The band parents and boosters who took care of our kids at lunch this week. Lunch time was always taken care of and went without a hitch. Thank you
- Our Lunch Sponsors for week 1. Grace Life Church 2. Ricks Produce and 3. Alabama Bliss Parents please take an opportunity to thank them with a social media post, email, or your business.
- Thank you administrators for working with the band program this week. We kinda take over the school during camp. Also thank you custodians as well.
- Thank you band staff. You are awesome.
If I had only one word to describe this week, it would be “Success”. Everything we hoped to get done we did. The staff has smiles and so did the kids. I think we all feel a sense of gratitude to be here, together, setting goals and trying to attain them. The students work ethic and attitudes have been better than I ever imagined. We worked hard and had fun. A pretty good combination.
We ended our day today with our first full ensemble rehearsal then a water balloon fight. Mrs. Hood and learned how the kids really feel about us 🙂
Next week is the same schedule but much more time outside. Next week it looks like Alabama summer arrives.
When climbing a mountain, you have to start somewhere. We are definitely headed in the right direction.
See you next week!
