We had our second "Marching Band Club" meeting this last Thursday. We were discussing different theme possibilities for next year's marching show. Thanks Emily for taking notes. They are attached below.
Our next meeting on Thursday from 3:35-4:30ish will give people a chance to share the work they have done researching supporting details for 1 of 4 show themes. If students would like to collaborate on the shared document they should email Sid. Work needs to be done between the meetings to move themes forward toward a decision. We may be picking a Marching Show theme at this next meeting. We examine the work that has been done and inform the decision making.
Students are invited to join the conversation, please read the notes and be respectful of the work and conversations that have already taken place.
Below is the link to an article that discusses how competition is detrimental to art. It is a complicated issue and the article below articulates many points very well.
The Arts are not a Competition.

Derek and Seawind hope to have the Rose Parade website up by Monday or Tuesday. I believe a first deposit will be requested around 3/20. Email is the best way to contact Derek right now as he is on a student traveling. I will share more information as soon as it is available.
