Don't suffer a fashion emergency!
Show shirts and all band gear will be on sale THIS Friday. ALL orders will be taken via a paper order form with payment attached at time of purchase."I preordered my shirt at the band banquet." you might say. All those sales are void, but don't fret just fill out an order form at the parent show and you are good to go. For all you visual shoppers, there will be samples for you to see and touch before you write your John Hancock on that check. If you are writing a check, you can make it out to Eastern Band Parent Association. Show your Eastern Marching Band pride by buying some band gear to wear running errands around town or band competitions. We are all a part of the same thing. And isn't this thing amazing? Go Eastern Marching Eagles!

You will find a list of water volunteer opportunities on the updated SignUpGenius link. Please take a peek and see if any of these dates fit your schedule. We still have available slots for the last few band camp days. New to our program? Come get your feet wet and volunteer with our hydration heroes!

STOP...My fat fingers have failed me!
The PARENT SHOW will be at 8:15 on Friday per our traditional schedule. Now, you may carry on with this fabulous day!

Let's give Eastern props for working so hard during band camp!
Our magical carpenters have been busily working behind the scenes and are in need of your help now. They will be building 3 stage carts out of wood THIS Saturday morning at 10AM and they have already built one to use as an example. Thanks guys! They will be gluing foam blocks together in order to build the Moai heads that are an integral part of this year's show. If you fancy yourself a handyman/woman or you can fake it really well for a day, then we need YOU! If you are not afraid of a little sweat equity and are available THIS Saturday, then please contact Jamie Sims for more information. You will find his contact information listed below.

If you build it, they will come; so come on out guys and let's get this project hammered out!

It's time for dinner and a show. (No tickets required) We have risen from the ashes to live to picnic another day. Please bring a side dish or dessert and (2) two liters next Friday and we'll provide the hamburgers and hotdogs. The band kids will be eating first at 6:00 followed by the rest of us. Have you ever tried to stop a pack of hungry band kids? It would get ugly. The band will practice until 9:00 and the parent show will follow afterwards. Grillers and hospitality works need to arrive at 4:00 because awesomeness needs time to marinate. There will be no ice cream social as a result of this change, but no worries you can dry your tears on a tasty hamburger bun.

Because of the heat, the band picnic has been postponed. More details to follow. Thank you!

Rain or Shine, It Will Be Time To Dine...
Our Family Picnic will be this Friday from 6:00-8:00. Please bring a side dish or dessert of your choosing, (2) 2-liters, a lawn chair, and your freshly showered band kid(s). We will provide the hotdogs/hamburgers as a thank you for joining our team. Come join us for a night full of laughter, good food, and friends. Be prepared that you will leave with a full heart and belly.

​Hello everyone! I am so excited to get started tomorrow! Make sure everyone brings lunch, is hydrated, and ready for the experience of a lifetime!
