Summer!

Pool-time, sleeping late, and lovely summer fun!
[...with lots of woodwind friends of course.] :)

Hey woodwinds!
I know, you're all having amazing summer breaks right now, but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't forget to check the woodwind blog on at least a weekly basis! All the cool kids are doing it, I promise.

you should really really think about going! we want to see YOU there! :)

In other news, this week we said goodbye to our seniors :(
Playing at graduation was fun, but saying goodbye was sad for the band!
WE'LL MISS YOU SENIORS!

Also, COUNTDOWN TO BAND CAMP: 44 DAYS!
Everyone, PLEASE be sure you're staying hydrated!!! It is HOT HOT HOT outside, and Jon will be the first to tell you that drinking lots of water is KEY to band camp success. Get outside, get moving, and get gulping!

Final news: stay connected! Everyone should be getting a call/email/facebook message from their squad leader very soon! If you're not receiving any of these things, there's a problem! These squad leaders should be able to answer any questions you may have, but if not, section leaders surely will be able to! Just to re-cap, your section leaders are:
Piccolos- Olivia Boorom
Flutes- Paige Shaffer
Clarinets- Christian Sutherland
Alto Saxes- Mary Kasper
Low WW- Genevieve Levert
You'll learn more about them in upcoming posts, so stay tuned! ;)

Have a great week everyone!
Love, Sarah
