Hi everyone!


Congratulations to everyone and their performance in the 57th Annual Oak Bay Tea Party Parade. Big sound. Big Heart. Lots of fun! So proud of your work this weekend as evidenced by my silly smile I couldn't stop wearing, walking beside you :) Well done! 

Thank you to my super crew of band parents who helped bring equipment, braid hair, walk the parade, hydrating, bringing treats. YOU ARE INCREDIBLE!

This week marks our FINAL CONCERT of the 2018-2019 school year. This Thursday, June 6th @ the beautiful (and air conditioned) Dave Dunnet Theatre @ Oak Bay High School. I do hope you plan on bringing as many of your family members and friends to this special occasion. It marks the hard work of 5 ensembles, culminating in an evening of FABULOUS music and a farewell to our grads who move on in just a few weeks. Please do let your family members know of this great night. Admission is by donation.

1) Final Spectrum Band Bottle Drive June 8th, 2019
This is our last kick at the can at Glanford Bottle Depot... we are hoping to have a record showing of students and drivers as this is the grand poobaw... the big kahuna... the grand chalupa fundraiser for the Spectrum Band Program. Proceeds of this bottle drive will help us buy some much needed equipment for next year. This could include: a Sousaphone, Percussion equipment, Sounds equipment (Electric piano, Amplifier for classroom speakers) A new Banner, A new marching bass drum skin with new logo... the list goes on!
 
2) Spectrum Final Concert
Our Final Concert of the Year is in 5 days! This will feature all of our ensembles including the brand new SPECTRUM CHOIR :). Our Concert will be held in the beautiful (air conditioned) Dave Dunnet Theatre at Oak Bay High. Our wonderful hosts have allowed us to use their equipment for the evening making for a fast clean up.
