Dear families/band supporters,
Welcome to the LCA band webpage! We
are excited about what the Lord is doing with LCA this year and
look forward to a great year.
2007‐2008: This year we will be
offering a beginning and intermediate band class during school that
is
opened to middle school and high
school. Beginning band will be held 2 nd
period and Intermediate band
will be held 6 th
period. Intermediate band is
open to any student with 6 or more months of experience.
That schedule begins with the second
nine weeks of school.
Our extracurricular program has
greatly expanded! We now have a Sr. and Jr. Drumline group as well
as
Color guard added to our auxiliary.
The “Marching Lions” will include the Sr. Drumline and the auxiliary
and will perform at half‐time during
football season home games. This group of students has already
been hard at work during our first
ever Band camp held in July. Mrs. Perry will direct the auxiliary
group. I will direct the drumline
group and be greatly assisted with the addition of Kyle McCarthy,
our
percussion instructor. During
basketball season, we will enjoy half‐time with both the Sr.
Drumline and
the Jr. Drumline. Remember “ HALF‐TIME
IS GAME TIME”!
As we grow I will post information
regarding concerts, links, events, etc. on this webpage. I will also
post
ways that you can support and help
grow the band program. You will notice below a list of “band items
needed”. If you would like to
purchase one or more of these items (or contribute toward) please
contact me.
Special note to sponsors :
If you wish to purchase an item(s) we will be happy to post support
for your
business on the website!
USED INSTRUMENTS WELCOME:
If you have contacts with H.S. or
middle school programs who are
upgrading their equipment please let
us know. This is a great opportunity for us to procure necessary
items for band. Being a new program
we are in need of instruments, music, equipment, etc.
Also…check your closets!!! Do you
have an old trumpet or saxophone or flute, etc. that is collecting
dust. If you are unable to join us in
the pep band we would welcome your previously enjoyed
instruments.
Thank you for the blessing of working
with your students. I welcome your thoughts and participation
and certainly covet your prayers.
Serving Him Together,
Jenene Craig
