Last week I volunteered at BHS ensure that all students have the pieces for their Concert Uniforms that the school loans or sells. This is one of the aspects of the Concert Uniform Team that we are in search of. Generally, the Concert Uniform Team coordinates with the Band Aide and the Marching Uniform Team Lead to fit and assign uniforms in August. There are only occasional needs between that point and the collection of pieces to send for dry cleaning. If this parent volunteer position is one in which you are interested, please reach out! I’d be happy to inform you of how your time can impact the BHS Bands!

 

This Week:

  • Monday, December 8: 4/5:30/7 PM - Basketball Concessions. 7 PM - Monthly Boosters Meeting in the BHS Band Room.

  • Wednesday, December 10: 7 PM - BHS Bands Concert in the BCPA. Students should note call times for their performance groups, as established by and communicated out by Mr. Swinkey. Attire is Concert Uniform (full tuxedos, tuxedo shirt, bow tie; concert dress; or vest, tuxedo shirt, bow tie, and black pants/skirt) with black shoes and socks. If your student is missing any part of their Concert Uniform, please reach out to me ASAP. PICK UP Meier Flowerland Purchases AFTER the Performance!

  • Friday, December 12: 7 PM - BHS Choir Concert in the BCPA.

 

Next Week:

 

I’m looking forward to seeing you this week - at the Boosters Meeting and the Concert!

 

Warmly,

If your child is in a BAS band you are automatically a member of the Boosters

Welcome! 

​

The Brighton Band Boosters is a non-profit organization of parents and care-givers dedicated to working in partnership with our Band Directors to create a one-of-a-kind experience for our band students. We support all aspects of the band including the marching band, drumline, and color guard, as well as the multiple concert bands at all three schools.

​

The Boosters are run by a board of volunteers elected by our members each year. We provide all band parents and guardians the opportunity to actively support our amazing band programs by helping with things such as chaperoning events and student socials, helping to move band equipment and distributing uniforms, assisting with concert publicity, fundraising, and more. Our goal is to keep things running smoothly so the band directors can focus on the students and the music. Our fundraising efforts, most notably the sale of concessions during BAS sporting events, provide valuable financial support to the bands.

​

The Boosters meet once a month. Meetings are open to parents and care-givers from BHS, Scranton and Maltby and include information concerning the future of the band programs, upcoming events, and areas of concern or need. Throughout the year you will receive email newsletters from the Boosters with event updates and volunteer opportunities. To learn more about how you can contribute to the on-going success of our band programs please contact the Booster President JuliAnne Diesch or attend one of our upcoming meetings.
