Volunteers Needed for Winter Concert. Please e-mail or contact Rory Mitchner at 901 292 2556 or rory.mitchner@gmail.com
Setup Help
We need one booster member to help with the set up of the stage prior to the concert from 2pm-4pm. They will meet with Dr. Wood in the back of the GPAC auditorium.
6th Grade Chaperone Help
We need ten 6th grade parents at 6:30pm. We need them there when the doors open at 6:30pm at the GPAC Center.
1 parent will direct the students to the back.
9 parents will chaperone the students while Dr Wood set up the Jazz Band in front of the curtains, tune up and repair the instruments. The parents will make sure that the students are dressed and orderly and ready to go.
After the 6th graders are finish playing, the parents will escort their group to the front 3 reserved rows. We ask that each chaperone sit with every 8 to 10 students, so that the students will not talk during the band concert. The recording equipment is very sensitive and will be in front of the stage near the students. It will pick up on the talking from the kids.
After Concert Help
We need 8 Dads to help load the band equipment onto the truck and 8 dads to unload the truck at the school. If you want to take pictures with your family, you can take your picture first and then come and help in the back.
Decorations!!!!!!
If you would like to purchase a poinsettias flower for the band stage please e-mail or call me. The cost will be $10. The flowers add a festive touch to the concert. After the performance, please come to the stage to pick up your flower from Lyn Grayson. She will make sure that you receive your flower.

All West Band Final Instructions
Dear Parents,
All-West auditions are approaching quickly, and there are a few things that we need to take care of as soon as possible.
Auditions will be Saturday, Dec. 13, at the University School of Jackson, TN. Audition times are attached, and we need to arrange transportation for those students who need help getting to Jackson. The address to USJ is 232 McClellan Road, Jackson, TN, 38305.
The most important thing to remember about auditions is that your child can’t be late! Students who are more than 10 minutes late for their audition will not be allowed to audition. Second, it is important to plan enough time to get a good warm-up. Try to arrive at the school at least 45 minutes before the scheduled audition time. This will allow you to warm-up and find your audition room without running late.
Students, you should be at the audition registration table ten minutes before your audition time. The people at the table will allow you to proceed back to the audition rooms. Parents, you may not go with your student to the audition rooms. After the audition, you are free to go. Ms. Spain and I will collect your judge’s sheets and have them for you on Monday. If you make All West, you will receive a call from me Saturday night.
Please return the form below, letting us know if your child needs transportation to Jackson, or if you will be able to help us transport students.
Thanks for your help, and I look forward to our students doing well at auditions.
Thank you,
David Wood
