Tag Day 2019 is this Saturday!

/

This Saturday, August 17th is the band’s annual Tag Day. Ross High School band members will stop by homes and businesses in the Ross Local School District asking for donations. These donations go directly into the band’s account to help pay for music, instruments, repairs, uniforms, etc. Please don’t feel obligated to donate, but know that any donation is greatly appreciated. If you will not be home that day, you can still contribute by sending your donation to the high school made payable to Ross Band. Band members will be dressed in Ross Maroon Polos and will be carrying a band hat.

The band would like to thank the Ross community for its continued support!

Short Performance Friday, August 16, 2019 at The Fitton Center

We will not have rehearsal Friday morning. Instead we will meet Friday afternoon at 3:45 to load buses and travel to the Fitton Center in Hamilton for a short performance. Parents are welcome to attend. It is free. This is the Fitton Centers' season launch. This year it is tropical themed, so go all out! Students will play outside at 5 pm. They will be done by 5:30. We plan to stay at the center for a little while and eat pizza. Everyone can go inside and check out the center. If you want your student to ride home with you, please send in a written note. Otherwise they will ride buses back.

Band Concert Dates and Times

/

Due to unforeseen circumstances, the RMS band concert for grades 6,7, & 8 is going to be rescheduled for next Tuesday night, December 18th @ 7:00 in the Ross High School Auditorium.
Students with any conflicts should contact Ms. Duncan.

RHS will perform Thursday Dec. 13 at 7 pm. As always, we do not charge admission for our concerts - we feel parents spend plenty of money already to support our band program. Instead, please bring a can good donation as admission for each person. We will donate to a local food pantry.

We are raffling off a brand new acoustic/electric guitar this year. What a nice Holiday Gift! We will pick the winner at the RHS band concert Dec. 13th. Tickets are $5 each. You do not need to be present to win. The guitar shop in Millville was nice enough to donate this to our band - please patronize this small, local business.
