This is why we are trying to get different parents to sign up for different games. We'd like for everyone to learn what goes on but don't want to burden anyone week in and week out. If you do come early with your kids and choose to wait in the band room, please wait until one of the board members asks for your help. Mr. Lamp has given his band officers the responsibility for the pre-game activities and requirements, so it's important that we let them do their jobs.

FSU - Band Day Trip, Letter from Michael Biggan
I want to comment on the trip, this past
weekend, to the Florida State University band
day.
First I would like to thank Mr. Lamp for getting
this set up.
He did a great job and the kids got to
sit directly behind the band at the game.
Second, I would like to thank Judy Kern
for getting us the bus so no parent had to
drive.
Third would be the parents who allowed
their kids to go and the chaperones who sat in
the rain with our kids.
I
also wanted to tell everyone how well our kids
were on this trip.
Saturday turned into a nineteen hour day.
Everyone was tired yet our band kids
represented William T. Dwyer High School with
respect and pride.
They were GREAT.
We all had a good time.
Thanks again to
everyone involved,
Michael Biggan

Dear Parents & Students,
Thank you to all the
parents who helped at the game Friday night.
We're glad so many families were able to make it
to the game! Mr. Lamp asked me to tell the
students this was the best first game
performance in his 3 years at Dwyer. Job
well done, both on the field and in the
stands!!
We made
the paper! On page 9C of the Post under
"Smells hit extremes on Friday Nights" it said
"And if Dwyer's band hadn't immediately taken
the field for a brassy rendition of
Flight of the Condor, there might
have been no noise at all on the home side of
the
Stadium except for a car alarm protesting in the
distance."
Some reminders:
