Several students requested that the results that were announced at the band banquet be posted to the website so they could be more carefully perused. So, finally, and with tremendous fanfare (imagine joe playing really loudly right now) here it is! enjoy.
On July 18th we are going to have a softball/kickball challenge after our Marching Band rehearsal. There will be two teams, Mr. Heydenburg's and Ms. Schlosser's. We are also hoping to have a cook out, but we will buy food after we collect money from people, so we will be buying the amount of food depending on how many people bring money. Please bring $3 or $4 dollars to cover the food costs. We will be having water and lemonade for beverages, if you would like pop or gatorade you are more than welcome to bring it. The food bought will be hot dogs and maybe nachos and cheese. Please talk to your parents and ask if you can stay longer to enjoy time with other band members. This is also a great way for the freshman to get to know the other members in band, so PLEASE stay and have some fun

The Bay Area Summer Wind Ensemble (Bay City, MI) will serve as a musical outlet and performance opportunity while promoting the area arts and cultural community. Ideally, the ensemble will be comprised of local advanced high school students (whose school programs will be benefited by donations taken at the final concert) as well as college level musicians and area professionals. The concept is for students to sit and perform next to their teachers and give the experienced instrumentalists an opportunity to lead sectionals, masterclasses, etc. A chamber music aspect will be incorporated, allowing those interested to participate in smaller ensembles. There is NO fee to participate.
Check out their website for more information.
MOUNT PLEASANT -- They've pitched and played defense like champions.
But the Bay City Western Warriors had to slug their way to Battle Creek.
When their pitching and fielding faltered for the first time on the tournament trail, the Warriors found another way to win, erupting with the bats -- including a seven-run, two-out rally in their final swings -- to defeat Hudsonville 15-8 in the Division 1 baseball state quarterfinals.
