Band Booster President's Message

Remember about the Band Pre-Festival Concert tomorrow night at 7pm featuring the Wind Symphony, Symphonic, and Concert bands. Students need to be at the school by 6pm.

Next we have the District Band Festival (which we are hosting) on Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week. A big thanks to those that are helping out. It's still not too late to join in the fun and volunteer for a position. We still need more volunteers for the Saturday session.

Seeking Volunteers for District Festival

Dear Westfield Band Parents and Students,

Thank you for the many generous responses to my previous request for volunteers!

While the majority of our volunteer needs have been met, we are in critical need of student volunteers on Saturday. We also need a few more students on Thursday, especially right after school. I thank the many student leaders from the Wind Symphony who have volunteered to help, but now it’s time for the underclassman in Concert and Symphonic bands to step up because the Wind Symphony students are busy performing on Saturday.
