Good morning CFHS BAND FAMILY!

I'm pretty excited to have you all back and here and ready to get BETTER!

A few important things to know about Day 1:

There IS Early Bird Jazz tomorrow morning, 7:23am.
Anyone and everyone is invited to join Mr. Renneke as he stands outside the school and blasts music and high fives students as they return to school! Depending on the number of students who show we might be able to cover both sides of the school (buses and parking lot). Wear your best Cardinal gear!
There is an assembly right away in the morning at 8:30 - Ms. Davis has asked the band and choir to play the school song and sing the Alma Mater (not together). So, when you get to school, head to down to the band room and grab your instrument.
We will NOT be going outside on Thursday, but we WILL be going outside on Friday. More on that later.
I'm really looking forward to starting this school year with you.

Ok, see you tomorrow. Questions, let me know.

Band camp is now behind us, and what a great two weeks it was!

A reminder that we are looking for students who are available and interested in playing at the District All-Staff Meeting on Monday morning, August 29.

Students should arrive at school at 8:30am to get ready and then the band performs at 9am. We will be done by about 9:10am.

This is an optional event, but we would love to have a HUGE turnout to really rock the auditorium as the entire district faculty and staff will be in attendance. Let's show them what the 2016 Marching Cardinals are capable of!

If you have questions let me know! Looking forward to it!

Mr. Renneke

Hello CFHS band family:

A few reminders about tomorrow's overnight rehearsal...

Students should leave at 5pm and return at 7pm for our dinner break. The band room is unavailable from 5-7pm. When you return you should bring all of your overnight gear. Overnight info (and what to pack) is on the website under "Parents > Itineraries"
If it is easier to bring your overnight gear with you Wednesday morning, you may do so. It should be kept in the seats in the auditorium. Be advised this is not a secure location.
Some sports have a curfew - this is not a problem with the overnight: athletes should attend this rehearsal. We just checked with all of the coaches again today - we have been doing this for years.
Students CAN bring games, movies, frisbees, etc for use during our late-night social time. Please make sure everything is marked with your name as we can't keep track of valuables.
If you are still interested in helping our with the late night snack or even chaperoning, please contact Nancy Stygar - stygarzoo@hotmail.com

Any questions, let me know! Looking forward to one of the highlights of the season!

Hello CFHS Band family!

Another great week of band is ahead of us! I'm looking forward to FINISHING the ENTIRE show and then performing it for you, our families and friends, for the first time during our 33rd Season!

A few updates:

More information about the Band Overnight on Wednesday, August 17 is now on the website. We specifically need your help with providing a few key food items for the evening. http://www.cfhsbands.org/itineraries.html
This Friday is our annual "Parent's Night" tradition where we perform everything we have learned so far for our family and friends! Because there is also a football game that night, we will be doing our normal routine and performing at pre-game and during the game as well. Our traditional first performance will then be during halftime! What a great way to share our hard work with the entire community.
After the football game we invite the entire CFHS band family into the high school cafeteria for our annual ice cream social! Come enjoy some great ice cream, say hello to friends and family, and (most importantly) sign-up to chaperone and volunteer with all of the different great events and opportunities we have going on this upcoming season! (Did I mention free ice cream?)

Camp 1 was a great start - we are all excited for Camp 2!

Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

Hello CFHS Band Family,

We have Infinite Campus up and running again, so we can start sending you reminders and updates via e-mail once more!

We have been having a GREAT week of camp so far - we have already learned the opener and today we will start to march and make music at the same time. The students are starting to build connections with their sections and we are seeing great cooperation throughout the band.

One reminder for all families: whenever a student will be absent we must have a note, phone call, or e-mail from a parent or guardian. An e-mail from a student (while responsible and appreciated) is not enough for us to excuse the absence. We are responsible for all our students and need to know from a parent or guardian whenever a student will be absent. Thank you for understanding!
