Color Guard Schedule & Updates
APA's Fall Musical, Les Miserables opens this Friday! This week is Tech week/Hell week, so our Pit Orchestra and everyone involved in the show will have a very busy week!
Or signed up to volunteer
This coming weekend, OMG needs lots of volunteers in many different areas!
We have a Football Game this Friday and it's our Middle School Night, when the local Middle School bands join our Marching Band to help play pep tunes during the first half of the game. After half time, we feed the Middle Schoolers to show our appreciation for them!
We need Football Concessions Volunteers, help with Uniforms and people to help with the Middle Schoolers.
Saturday is our first Marching Band Competition and there is a Les Mis Performance! Many of our Pit Orchestra performers are also in Marching Band. They need YOUR help to get from Costa Mesa High School back to HBHS in time for Les Mis! Our students who can drive will not be allowed to drive themselves! Parents, please sign up to drive! It's a quick volunteer position and you'll be helping to support multiple programs at once!
It certainly is OMG's busy season!
But our community is here to support you
in any way you need!
And don't forget,
"many hands make light work"
and the more we can help and support each other,
the better our program will be
and the easier it will be for all of us!

The school year just started, but we're already thinking about next year's OMG Board! Being on the board is a great opportunity to get involved and help all these talented students. If you know someone who would be a good fit, or if you want to be more involved in nominations, please reach out to our Parliamentarian, Linda Farrow.
Revisions of the OMG Bylaws are in the works. The Executive Board will be making necessary changes to include new Directors and to make sections more clear and concise. The revised Bylaws will be sent to ALL members and voted on at one of our Guild meetings.
