Updated: Nov 13
Congratulations to the Oiler Band on an extremely strong 3rd place finish at San Clemente HS on Saturday! We jumped up almost 10 points from last week, were only 1 point away from 1st place, and the band placed first in the General Effect category. Congrats everyone!!
Update!
This weekend's competition has been cancelled due to the incoming weather. We will not be competiting or rehearsing on Sat, Nov 15th.
Parent To-Do Checklist
OVERDUE: Pay family donation for Marching Band by clicking the link.
Please volunteer in one of the following ways below 👇🏻 Click on the links to sign-up.
CSBC Champs at HBHS! (11/27) - We are less than two weeks away! Please sign up for a shift now so we can pre-plan the day as best as possible.
Here are all of our volunteer opportunities if you'd like to plan ahead.
2025 CSBC Championships
Another reminder, we will once again be hosting the California State Band Championships @ HBHS on Nov 22nd! Less than 2 weeks away.
This annual event is our program's biggest fundraising source. We make about a quarter of our entire annual budget from this single day.
We Need Our Amazing Parent Volunteers Again
We cannot pull off an event of this magnitude without the help of every single band family. This is another important event for our program, and most importantly the students who benefit from its success.
We'll need help staffing a variety of roles (like parking, concessions, ushering, grilling, etc), and we'll also need plenty of donations like drinks and baked goods to sell at concessions.
Volunteer sing-ups are now live here. Job descriptions can be found there as well. Our biggest need is in the evening, and helping clean up after the competition is over. Please consider signing up for one of those shifts if you are available!
***Please remember all marching band families need to volunteer 25 hours each year. This is a great way to knock out a lot of those hours in a couple shifts!***
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out: afloyd@hbuhsd.edu
