2010-2011 Band Trip Announced:
The band will continue its tradition of taking a trip every 4 years. The “plan”, while still in process is to depart Thursday, March 17th, 2011 for Washington DC via motorcoach. The return date is Tuesday, March 22nd around lunchtime. This will coincide with Spring Break. Estimated cost is $670.00 per person. A Trip Meeting will be held on Monday, June 7th at 7:30 PM for all who are interested. Please do not call or ask for specific information until that time as the planning process is in the early stages.

Immortalize Yourself...
The band is offering you and your student a
special opportunity to forever "immortalize yourself" by purchasing
a block of granite to be placed on the walls outside the band room
with your student/family name or special message.
The granite bricks are 7 7/8 inch x 4 inch and the cost is $50.00 per brick. The
proceeds from this event will go towards renovation projects for the LBHS
auditorium in support of the various arts programs.
The band is hoping to make this a yearly tradition, offering this program
two times per year.
All bricks purchased at this time will be installed by June 30th.
Join us in building the Band "wall of memories" and preserving
the history of our program. This would be a great tribute to our graduating
seniors and their families, as well as our outstanding band program.
