Band shirts are like potato chips. It is impossible to have just one; so go ahead grab a form and order your band gear before crunch time!
Did you miss the initial band gear deadline? You don't have to be a gear head without any gear! Leslie Vann Lazrovitch is throwing caution to the wind and is bringing a bonus band gear order to the table. She will have order forms on hand for tomorrow night's football game and will leave some in the band room on the music stand starting tomorrow. All forms and monies are due by FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 15TH. (Please make checks payable to EHS Band Parent Association.)

Director of Bands Eastern High School 12400 Old Shelbyville Rd. Middletown, KY 40243 502-313-4049 option 5 Hello all! I wanted to update you on the upcoming 2 weeks and uniforms. I APOLOGIZE FOR THIS BEING LENGTHY BUT PLEASE READ!
I just got off the phone with our representative at the factory. They are working as quickly as they can but our uniform is very detailed which makes it very difficult to sew. The pants are done and are shipping today. The hats should be done in a day or so and they will ship them. It is currently taking 3X longer to sew our coat than it does a normal band coat. The moral of the story is, the coat your kid will wear next week may not have even been sewn yet! With that said, here is our plan. We will fit all students into their pants this Friday during dinner, before we go out for the game, and after halftime. THE WHITE LONG SLEEVE UNDERSHIRT MUST BE SENT IN ON FRIDAY! It will be put in their bags for safe keeping. We have to perform in the uniform before going to compete for the first time. That being said, we need to do a parent/community performance on September 8th in full uniform. We will rehearse as scheduled on Friday, September 8th at 3:00 and I will release them at 5:45 to eat dinner. You can bring it to them or we will have pizza available for $1 a slice. We will do a parent show run-through with full pit crew, walk-on, props, and show in FULL uniform at 7:30. That still gives time to walk-through the Middletown Festival after dark if you would like. I know my family is going so I hope to see you there! We have a later arrival on Saturday the 9th so that will help. I am sorry for the change but since we haven't done this in uniform, I don't see any way around it. THANK YOU for your support and understanding. This show is going to be AMAZING! I am so excited about this season! GO EAGLES! Mike Arthur Director of Bands Eastern High School 12400 Old Shelbyville Rd. Middletown, KY 40243 502-313-4049 option 5 Right about now, nothing can kill my vibe! Here is your Franklin-Simpson itinerary. And so the adventure begins... ![]()
Call me nuts, but I just can't make this smooth for you because my name is not Jiffy. The football game has been moved to this THURSDAY.
The remnants of Harvey are supposed to be arriving on Friday and the game has been moved as a cautionary measure by the powers that be not just for grins and giggles.. This means that practice will be from 3:00 to 5:15 and then they will be dismissed for dinner. The game starts at 7:00PM. The band will be dismissed at halftime since it is a school night. We STILL need your help in the concession stands as it generates much needed revenue for the band. Let's band together for a terrific Thursday under the lights! You asked and now you shall receive.
Our September 23rd contest will be at PRP! We're just a stone's throw away; so let's rock this competition out! Pleasure Ridge Park High School 5901 Greenwood Drive Louisville, KY 40258Ket Holy Shirt, Batman! POW...The deadline is almost here!
Band members with the exception of the Color Guard will need a white with white stitching long sleeved compression shirt by SEPTEMBER 1st! This long sleeved compression shirt will be worn under the band uniform. Our shiny shirts will not be received in time for our first competition, but the show must go on. You can find various brands at Amazon or local sporting goods outlets. If you shop amazon, please use www.smile.amazon.com and select Eastern Band Parents Association if you shop Amazon. Amazon Smile will donate a percentage of what you spend directly to the marching band. It's basically community service. You get a THANK YOU! And you get a THANK YOU!Everyone gets a THANK YOU!
Your enthusiasm and dedication to lifting this program on your shoulders has not gone unnoticed. THIS marching band is truly special, if you were lucky enough to see them take the field last night you witnessed that first hand. We are extremely lucky to have extraordinary leaders from A(rthur) to Z(ilisch) and we want to support them any way we can while they mold our moving musicians. Thank you for being part of something bigger than yourself. Let's roll up our sleeves and dig right in because this party is just getting started! We will back at it again on Friday. WE Are Marching Eagle Parents! What's your superpower? March Well. Laugh Often. Deodorant Much.
Here is a trick of the trade that will help your marcher wave off some of the side effects of participating in a competitive marching band. Deodorant/antiperspirant is your friend and your friend's friend. Please apply generously and often. This is one of those cases when a little does not go a long way. This is not a park and bark marching band. They are on the move. Sweat and repetitive movements can be a recipe for disaster. Did you know that deodorant is not only for under your arms? You can rub on deodorant before exercising on your thighs in order to prevent the dreaded marcher's chaff and to your feet to keep marcher's foot at bay. They are never going to be accused of being lazy, but now they can be fresh as a daisy. |
