Parents I want to thank you for all of those that volunteered at the concessions or chaperoning as well. Your hard work definitely does not go unnoticed! This week is one of the busiest weeks for the Mighty Black & Gold! Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Homecoming Week!! You will see the schedule below all of the performances and rehearsals that we will be giving throughout the week.

HC Week Uniforms: Tuesday - Escapades - Show Shirt & Blue Jeans/Blue Jean Shorts Thursday - Pep Rally - Full Uniform Minus Helmets Friday - HC Parade - Summer Uniform Friday - Game - Full Uniform I have attached the school dress-up days for students to have in case you would like to dress up on those days during school.

This week, we will also have our first meat sticking of the year. This will take place on Wednesday AFTER SCHOOL at 1pm. Wednesday is also a half-day so we will get a little earlier start than normal. All students must attend this meat sticking. Remember, the sell of these shishkabobs has helped to buy 2 band trucks, uniforms, and new instruments over the years, so please make all efforts to attend. We are also making preparations for the Blackwater Classic on October 6th. We will talk extensively at the BPA meeting next Tuesday. You can help now by signing up to bring items to our world famous hospitality room!! Please CLICK HERE to sign-up to bring various items to the room. The hospitality room is kinda like a break room for the judges as well as the various band staffs we will host that day.

Finally, I have placed the order for the parent and others show shirts. I am hoping these will be delivered this week. Remember these are going to be cotton NOT dry-fit. That is all for this week!

The shish kabob meat sticking scheduled for this week has been moved to next Wednesday, September 12th due to a delay in the shipment of the meat. Because this is a scheduled half day for the school district, we will start at 1pm (After School) and go till 5pm. Please adjust your calendars accordingly. Thank you!
Just got word that the Superintendent that all schools will be on half day schedule on Tuesday, September 4th and all after school activities are canceled. This includes the HC door meeting as well as the rehearsal. School should resume as normal on Wednesday but please stay tuned to the news and weather for further updates.
Statement from the Superintendent: "This is Tim Wyrosdick, Superintendent of Schools with important information on Tropical Storm Gordon. The safety and welfare of our students and employees is always our greatest concern. Based on the 5 pm briefing from the National Hurricane Center Santa Rosa County will begin to experience Tropical Force winds Tuesday afternoon. After consulting with Santa Rosa County Emergency Operations Center we will dismiss school early on Tuesday and school will resume on Wednesday. Parents can find your schools dismissal time on our homepage. In addition, all after school activities will be cancelled for Tuesday evening. Any additional advisories will be distributed through local media and through Santa Rosa Facebook and Twitter. I ask you stay advised on the status of Tropical Storm Gordon as conditions may change overnight." Hello All,
Another OUTSTANDING job at the Choctaw game to all! I continue to be amazed at the progress our students are making with the show as well as the spirit they bring to the games in the stands! Keep it up everyone. Soon we will have our complete show on the field to add that extra element to everything. A few uniform updates. First, to the colorguard. We have been in constant contact with Algy, the uniform company making your uniforms. They are assuring us that the uniforms that were ordered in June are in production and are due to be completed and shipped hopefully this week. Keep your fingers crossed! The helmets for the winds and percussion have also obviously been delayed. These were also ordered at the beginning of June. They were having trouble with the gold paint of the helmets flaking off, so they have had to completely strip all of the helmets and repaint all 60 of them. We still have no word on when these will ship, but will keep you updated. This week, we will be keeping an eye on tropical storm Gordon. Please make sure you pay attention to news and weather broadcasts for updates on school closings. As of right now, we are planning for business as usual with rehearsals, the meat sticking, and school. We do have our first meat sticking this Wednesday, weather permitting. All students are to stay and help out with this event. We will begin 5th period with concert band. The full band will join in after school. We are scheduled to go till 6pm, but there is a chance that we will be done earlier. This Friday is our first home game in a couple weeks. Parents, WE NEED YOUR HELP! Please use the links below to sign up for either side. All help is appreciated. Chaperone Help - CLICK HERE Concessions Help - CLICK HERE Next week is Homecoming week and a busy busy week for the Mighty Black & Gold.
