Band Booster Leadership Positions
We need to start positioning the band for the Booster parental support they will need next year. A large portion of our Band Booster Executive Board are Senior parents. We need volunteers for next year to provide the structure and support the band needs to be able to participate in the opportunities Mr. Roger’s provides for the kids. The Band Boosters are a 501C3 Non-Profit Organization. In order to maintain that non-profit status, the Executive Board must have at minimum President and Treasurer for the 2020-2021 School Year in place by June 30.
If you want to know what’s involved, click on the name of the position and a document should download onto your device with a description, a rough estimate of time involved, and contact info for the person who is currently doing that job this year.

Oldham County Community Band
If you are in possession of a folder belonging to the Oldham County Community Band (remember, we got knocked out of a performance in March, too), please contact Mr. Rogers to set up a time for returning it.
The music in the folders are all originals, and we want to make sure we get everything back. Thanks for your help in getting this music returned promptly.
I’m looking into the possibility of starting OCCB rehearsals again at some point during the summer; information about that will be posted at www.eboard.com (rogersbrad) under the OCCB tab.
