Dear Perry Band Members, Families, and Friends:
We will be holding our annual Band Banquet/Award Ceremony on Wednesday, May 13th at 6:00 PM. This event will take place virtually via Zoom/Facebook Live. I am currently working out a plan to do this, but I’m WAY out of my comfort zone so it’s taking me a bit to learn what I need to learn to pull this off. Please be patient. I will have details for everyone some time this week.
Senior awards will be delivered to your home personally by Mr. Smith, Mrs. Martin, and Mr. Sterling (together) during the days following the ceremony. Seniors will get an email to confirm your willingness to have me stop by your house and also to get your address. Again, details and exact date to come. Each senior’s name will be read during the virtual Awards Ceremony. In addition, it is my intent to invite our senior class for a gathering this summer if circumstances allow.
The following awards will be presented:
Most Outstanding awards for Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior
Band Scholarship
Alicia Spitler Spirit Award
Louis Armstrong Jazz Award
Director’s Award
John Philip Sousa Award
Underclassmen letters, pins, and plaques will be handled when we return to school.
Band Slideshow: Please send your pictures to Trae Russell (traerussellrph@gmail.com) ASAP so she can begin putting this together. Seniors: We need 1 baby picture and 1 current picture from you. I “think” I can figure out how to share the slideshow video at the end of our event “live”…….emphasis on think. If not, we will share the link via YouTube.
In the coming days, keep your eye on the website (www.perryband.com) for information and more details!
