Music Day and SAVE THE DATE email

Hi all,

Welcome to the new '08/09 email list for West Salem High School's Titan Orchestras program. Please check the blog often: www.titanorchestras.blogspot.com

Also, please respond to this email if you have additions or deletions to make to your email information.

There are 2 important issues in the email:
1) Music Day, Saturday Sept. 6
2) Parent Meeting (students welcome) Monday Sept. 22 in the evening at West

1) Music Day is our annual fundraising event with Band and Choir. Students in multiple groups may decide which group they wish to be 'working' for. MUSIC DAY IS ONLY FOR SOPHOMORES, JUNIORS, and SENIORS THIS YEAR. Here's the info:

For those who wish to work Music Day, please respond to this message or sign up outside the orchestra room door no later than Wednesday. Students will report at 8am and NEED TO STAY WORK UNTIL 1pm - no early releases this year!!! We only need 32 students to participate. Another 10 students may work in the room at West with Ms. Silberman (from 8am to 11am). ANY STUDENT WHO IS NOT PARTICIPATING IN MUSIC DAY or ROOM WORK DAY WILL BE ASSIGNED A MUSIC HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT DUE Monday the 8th. So, again, here are the options for all Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors:

a) Sign up to help with Music Day (students wear their black performance clothes and walk/drive around West in pairs to solicit funds for the West music department)
b) Sign up to help around the room with Ms. Silberman
c) Do an assignment due Monday the 8th.

**WE NEED PARENT DRIVERS** We need 8 parent drivers, fully licensed and insured, with room for 4 seatbelted students. Please respond to this email ASAP if you are willing and able to drive. Please indicate if your child (and friends??) will be wanting to go in your vehicle. As soon as you return this email, your name will be turned over to the Music Day coordinator who will then give you more information and a route. More q's? Please respond to this email or email Ms. Silberman (silberman_daryl@salkeiz.k12.or.us)

2) SAVE THE DATE - on September 22 is the annual Parent Meeting. This year students are welcome as we will be revealing all the information about the trips planned this year - very exciting! The meeting will most likely be tiered (freshman parents come first, all parents come second, and only some parents stay for the long distance trip information) - those exact times and details will be announced in the next few weeks. Please save roughly 6:30 - 8:30 in your calendar.

Thanks!~Ms. Silberman
