State Band Contest Because the Freshman and Symphonic Bands each received Superior ratings at the District Band Contest, they will be participating in the State Band Contest on the weekend of April 27/28. The dates and times are now available for this event. The contest will be held at Lima/Shawnee High School in Lima. Check the schedule below to determine which day and time your child's band will be performing. Spectators are welcome and encouraged to attend. Participating in this event is a great honor and your children have been working hard to prepare for it. Plan to show your support if at all possible. Performance times are below.
If you'd like to chaperone a band to contest, please contact Chuck or Shirlee Bostdorff @ 352-3381. Don't forget the pre-contest evening rehearsals, which will be held at BGHS.

Senior Parents: As your children graduate, don't miss the opportunity to continue helping out the band (and your own pocketbook). You can use food certificates to purchase graduation party food and supplies or to give as gifts. Even after your child completes his/her band experience, you can still purchase gift certificates on Wednesday nights from 6:00-7:00 PM and on Saturday mornings from 10:00-11:00 AM at the Brechmacher home. Don't forget that you will receive 5% credit on all certificates you purchase. Each time you have earned $100 credit for the band (by purchasing $2000 in certificates), you will be awarded a bonus $25 gift certificate. (For students remaining in band, a $25 credit to the Band Store or a $25 credit toward your fall uniform fees will be offered, as well.) This is a great opportunity to repay the band program that has served your children so well. Pops Concert The Spring Pops Concert will be in Kobacher Hall at BGSU on May 15th. The ticket price has not been set yet, but please mark your calendars. This is the last concert of the year, and you won't want to miss it. Toledo Youth Orchestra Are you looking for an enjoyable and unique way to spend a Sunday afternoon? The Toledo Youth Orchestra will be performing May 20th at 3:00 pm in the Toledo Museum of Art Peristyle.
