we're gonna fly through this week... like little birdies ;)

HEY WOODWIND.
YEAH. YOU.
ARE YOU READY FOR OUR FIRST COMPETITION?!
YEAH?!
perfection.

hey guys :)
so, just a quick update. mainly I want to show off some beautiful pictures of us in uniform from friday night's game, but I also have some SUPER important things to tell you (as always). So:

1. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for your donations to sponsor a trophy for PCI! The Woodwinds raised $100 in ONE WEEK. Which is just absolutely incredible and amazing and a million other adjectives. You guys are THE BEST!

2. LADIES: Please see the BAND FACEBOOK PAGE for instructions on how to do your hair. If you thought we were crazy about it for a football game? Just wait until Saturday, when we're actually being JUDGED based on how we look. (also, ladies, remember that we are not allowed to wear EARRINGS or any other jewelry that can be seen with the uniform on. even teeeeny tiny little studs are not allowed.)

3. TAKE YOUR MUSIC HOME AND PRACTICE IT. Although the saxes got called out today, we all know that had it been our section with a difficult and exposed phrase, half of us wouldn't have known our music perfectly either. Also, we get judged as a WOODWIND SECTION, so even if one person doesn't know their part, we all get points deducted. (This family thing is all about sticking together-- win together, lose together, support each other TOGETHER.)
so PRACTICE guys. it won't hurt, I promise.
((SECTION LEADERS: HOLD SECTIONALS.))

4. Speaking of Sectionals, FLUTES: you have an outdoor sectional TOMORROW (9/20) DURING LUNCH !

5. Don't forget about the PCI GUIDE MEETING after school 9/20

6. Don't forget about the PCI VOLUNTEER MEETING (parents, too!) after practice on 9/21

7. Don't forget about the EXTRA PRACTICE after school on 9/22

Get pumped for this weekend guys! PCI is one of my FAVORITE things we do all year (and a TON of alumni are coming back to help! YAY!) So it'll be a good time, don't you worry.

HOORAY for getting Little Bird on the field today! More rehearsals like that, and this week will literally fly by. ;)

Now that you've suffered through announcements, CHECK OUT HOW GOOD WE LOOK IN UNIFORM:















and also, how good Mansi looks in her band hair: (we're going to have a contest to see whose hair looks the best)



















and finally, some supercute pictures of woodwind friends:




























Alright guys that's all! Keep practicing!
love, sarah
