2011 Titan Band Golf Tournament

Our 2nd Annual 2011 Titan Band Golf Tournament was a great success recently. With our very own Mr. Otis, Band President Rob Moroni and Legend Titan Principal Cory Wise – they completed their group of 4 with a band parent who won the 4th spot to play with them at our Silent Auction. It was a bit cold and windy at times, but the day was still nice enough to get a round in of golf and even a chance to try for a hole in one to win a car! We thank all the parents who donated their time to help make this event successful.

2011 Parent Orientation/Info Meeting (Thurs)5/19 7pm

Hello Parents,

Just a friendly reminder about the MB Parent Orientation Meeting tomorrow night in the band room.(Thursday, May 19th 7pm)
Refreshments will be served!
Very relaxed atmosphere…many topics will be discussed

THIS IS NOT A BAND BOOSTER MEETING. It is an orientation meeting designed to give information about the MB program and have you ask as many questions as you feel are necessary. (Note: I may not have the answer to every question-but I will try)

The meeting is scheduled for 90 minutes, but I will be around for as long as needed after the meeting
for anyone that would like to ask additional questions.

Who should Attend? Any Titan MB parent that is new or returning to the program and just wants more info about the band.

MEETINGS LIKE THIS ARE VERY IMPORTANT FOR LARGE ORGANIZATIONS SUCH AS OURS! BECAUSE MANY TIMES YOUR QUESTION IS THE SAME AS THE PERSON SITTING RIGHT NEXT TO YOU!

Band booster officers will be in attendance and if you want to get involved, believe me the opportunity is available.
I hope to see you at the meeting.

Mr. Otis

Band students-want to do something fun this summer?…

Several members of the Legend Band are already involved and you could also be a part of the 145 piece summer band. The band’s theme this summer is “Music of the Movies”. Yes… the band is playing the music of many great movies. It’s a blast. Meet lots of new friends and keep practicing your instrument all summer.
