Hi Boosters
WOW . . . our band practiced hard all day Saturday in the scorching Texas heat and then put on an awesome halftime show!!! We are so proud!!
There is another Saturday practice this week (along with Tues and Thurs). Friday’s football game schedule will be announced later in the week. Deadline to order meals is Tuesday (see band website under “feeding the band”).
The 3rd payment of band fees was due Sept 13th, this was a crucial payment as the travel agency was being paid for the student’s travel/hotel expenses for Indy. If you have any questions regarding fees, check the website under “Finances ’07 ’08.
The TWHS Band Pit Crew is an extremely hard working group of parents who do a difficult and strenuous job of getting the enormous amount of equipment and props to all games and competitions. On top of this, they are the group who is responsible for building the props (which is still a work in process). This has been a tough week for them and will continue until all props are built.
A GREAT BIG HUG to all Pit Crew parents! You guys are amazing!!

Water / Snack Help Needed!! Katie Mullen (travel @twhsband.com)
A HUGE thank you to the Costello’s for their generous donation of 7 fabulous coolers (these are much easier to use and worked out great) and to the Watson’s for donating the water and propel for Saturday’s practice.
The Travel Committee needs help to keep our students hydrated and nourished during long competition days.
v Donate Water
v Donate Snacks
v Help to ice down water
v Help to deliver water/snacks to students
Please contact Katie Mullen if you are willing to help out in any way. The easiest way to donate water and snacks is by donating money (checks), however if you would prefer to bring in a case of water or healthy snacks (pb crackers, granola bars, muffins etc.) that would be great. Checks should be made payable to TWHS Band Boosters and left in the band hall mailbox (mark envelope “Travel Water”). Any questions?? Contact Katie Mullen. Thank You!
