Below are links to our sheet music for this year.  I will move them to the “members” section once that is updated and password protected.  The files contain ALL of the parts!  Please be sure to click “print current page” or enter your page number when printing…otherwise you will print EVERY INSTRUMENT PART!

If there are 2 parts (i.e. Alto 1 and Alto 2), generally students in grade 11-12 will play the 1st part and students in grades 9-10 will play the 2nd parts.  If there are 3 parts (such as trumpets), then all 9th grade students and some 10th grade will play the 3rd part, some 11th and 10th grade students will play the 2nd part, and some 12th and 11th grade students will play the 1st part.

The band needs to make sure that all of the parts are covered.  We may need to change assignments once band camp begins.  Especially with the trumpets being mostly 12th grade students.  We may assign parts on a song-by-song basis.

As always, contact me at richard.weaver@redclay.k12.de.us if you have any questions.

Please remember that the Hockessin 4th of July Parade is this Wednesday!

-Report Time: 2:00 pm.  Meet at Sycamore Hill Church (formerly Hockessin Baptist Church). (505 Schoolhouse Road, Hockessin, DE 19707)

-Summer Uniform (sunglasses are ok to wear).

-Parade starts at 3:00 pm on Old Lancaster by the church.  It ends at the bottom of the hill at Valley road.  We should be finished the parade around 3:30 pm.  Parents picking up their students after the parade should meet them in the parking lots down by Wawa or the shopping center with Two Cousins Pizza.

-Band Room will be open from 12:30-1:30 p.m. if you need to pick up an instrument.There is no bus for this event and the band room will not be open after the parade.  Band members will just take their instruments home.  Drummers will need to fit their drums in their vehicles too.  I may not have my truck to help with this event.

– Drink lots of water and eat lunch before reporting to the parade.  Also, wear sunscreen as it will likely be hot and sunny.

– If you cannot attend this event you should have e-mailed Mr. Weaver already at richard.weaver@redclay.k12.de.us.  Let me know ASAP if you have not already done so.
