Winter Guard
Winter Guard auditions will take place on Tuesday, Nov 14th, and Thursday 16th, from 3-5 pm in the band room. Winter Guard consists of dance performance using flags, rifles, and sabers. No experience necessary! There will be a JV and Varsity team open to middle school and high school students. You might be accustomed to seeing the guard with the marching band, however, the Winter Guard is a group that rehearses and competes after the fall marching band season, and although related, is separate from the band. Auditions are Tuesday, Nov 14th, and Thursday, Nov 16th. Contact Mr. Marski or Mrs. Burg if you have questions. Hope to see you there.
PKY Unplugged
Come see your peers at PKY Unplugged present their bands and talents! The cost is $3 or three canned goods. PKY Unplugged is Nov 15 from 7-9pm. Tickets are on sale at lunch, at the door or through Hometown Ticket App.
Please pause for a moment of silence:
Please stand for the pledge:
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Have a wonderful day Blue Wave!
