Mar 9th, 2026 Band & Colorguard Notes

Last Week's Recap


Drumline had another amazing performance on Saturday, placing 2nd out of 9 groups in our division! Even though we don't have a drumline competition for a few weeks due to the APA musical, we'll be working hard to get our movement 3 on the floor and our show finalized.


Spring Band Concert - March 31st!


Please note that our new spring band concert date is March 31st, at 7pm in the HBHS auditorium. Our HBHS Wind Ensemble will be performing in addition to our Jazz Lab Band, Jazz Big Band and a couple of our chamber groups.


For a full schedule of the rest of the year, please visit the OMG Calendar on the website.



Purchase HBHS Band 2026 Photos


Last month we took our HBHS Oiler Band group photo and individual photos. Students were sent home with a paper order form that photo packages could be pre-ordered with, but you can still order photo packages online.

Use this link to view the album, and the code to use is your students first and last name. Please email the photographer, photohousehb@gmail.com if you have any questions.



2026-2027 OMG Board Member Position Availability


We are in the process of recruiting for next year's OMG Board Members! Here are the following positions needing to be filled:

  • VP of Orchestra

  • VP of Band

  • VP of Colorguard

  • Assistant Treasurer


All of these positions co-lead with someone else so don't worry, you will have a fellow parent with some experience able to show you the ropes.


In recognition of the time and talents volunteered of our Board Members, a 20% rebate

of dues paid for all of the programs your child is involved in throughout the year is being

offered! This can really add up for those families who have children in multiple groups

and events throughout the year (i.e. marching band, drumline, color guard, jazz band).


Please reach out to Sara Sprague, OMG Board Parliamentarian at (310) 406-5912 if you are interested.
