Good Afternoon!

Please find a link for information about our summer parades and band camp at the bottom of this message.  Report time for the St. Anthony’s Parade is 12:30 pm at AIHS on Sunday, June 17th, 2018.  We meet at Sycamore Hill Church in Hockessin at 2:00 pm.

Summer parade are only for veteran players who were in marching band during the 2017-18 school year.  All members are expected to attend.  Anyone who will miss an event should e-mail Mr. Weaver at richard.weaver@redclay.k12.de.us if they have a conflict.  Please let me know of any event you will miss as soon as possible, but not less than 72 hours (3 days) prior to the event.

Band Camp is for ALL NEW AND RETURNING band members.  More information will be posted here over the summer.  But for now, mark the dates on your calendar.  Again, I understand conflicts happen, but inform me as soon as possible via e-mail.  Work, homework, and non-AIHS clubs are not excused absences from marching band evening rehearsals.
