The FALL PARADE PUSH!

Every fall our 7/8 band feels the pressure of getting ready to march in a public parade just 5 weeks into the school year. This year the band has taken that challenge seriously and is working quickly to prepare for the Oct. 5 afternoon parade (note the 3 p.m. start time, parents).  We're unveiling some new looks as well as a few surprises in our marching routine that you won't want to miss. Students are working hard to MEMORIZE music, cadences, and routines. When you ask your student about the upcoming Pumpkinfest Parade, make sure to give them a word of encouragement. 

And by the way, just 2 1/2 weeks later (Oct. 22) we will also perform an indoor concert with 2-3 other songs. So there's no shortage of music to practice right now--for any of the ZCS band students. Parents should rejoice in hearing the 'happy horns' sound at home:)
