Updates for January - Thursday, 19 January 2012
First of all, HAPPY NEW YEAR. The band has been pretty much mundane in 2011 after SYF but we're starting off 2012 well!
The band welcomes our new instructors,
Mr Lim Yean Hwee - Band Director
Ms Loh Wan Shan - Assistant Band Director
Although its only the start of January, it felt like we've done a lot more things than 2011! The making of banners, souvenirs and practicing of Hawaii 5-O for our CCA open house really gives the impression of the unity crestwinds. And although it's ONLY January, most of us have already attended 1 concert, and for some of us 2. Compared to last year when we only attend concerts once every 6 months. I hope that this unity will stay on and be carried out during sectionals, combine, fall in!
Miscellaneous things to take note of:
1)
Pencils - one pencil each file for every practice would be ideal.
2) Watches - to be taken off during practice & fall in.
3) Bags - place them neatly with your section in your own spot before practice.
I/C: Section leaders
4) Attire - uniformity! Band tee means band tee, uniform means uniform. No ankle socks. No unbuttoned collar button.
I/C: Welfare officers
5) Band fund - collected monthly, $2 every month.
I/C: Treasurer
Overall I/C: Executive Committee
Announcement:
1) Those who have yet to pay Adriana $5.50, please do so ASAP.
2) Duty roster will be put up, please be prepared for your duties!

Question: Why does the french horn bell face the back of the audience?
And for the Chinese, Happy Chinese New Year! :)
