On Monday, March 10, the first day of spring break, we will have a band hall work day to reorganize the band hall from 10:00am-2:00pm. WE WILL ALSO PROVIDE FOOD! Our projects will include the following.
Organize the small ensemble room
Organize the band library
Assemble music library storage boxes
Move the filing cabinets from the band hall floor
Organize upstairs storage
Please fill out the google form below if you are available to help on this day. I know it is not ideal to ask you to use spring break time to help with this project, but if we can get 10-15 volunteers to help with these projects, we can get it done in one day.
