This past Friday, October 20th, we honored our Seniors with a reception following the game. Thank you, Jackie Morrison, Special Events Coordinator, and your crew of workers for organizing such a nice reception. You always do a great job! Seniors, Jordan Berry, Katrina Fleeton, Abi Fuller, Sarah Grinstead, Leah Leary, Kyle Lesinger, Hannah Moon and Kristen Walker, we've watched you grow up in band and become the leaders that you are and we will miss each one of you! We wish you much happiness and success in all your future endeavors!
Band Booster Concessions Tent
This past Friday, October 20th, the Band Booster Concessions Tent took in $914.50! (The change was from a few brownies that were sold). This figure is down a little from previous games and we feel it was because Daleville didn't have many on the visitor's side. But no frownie faces here! We are thrilled to bring in any amount! Thank you to all those that worked so hard Friday night. We couldn't have done it without you! Also, special thanks to Randy Porterfield, our peanut man. We know it takes many hours "behind the scenes" to prepare the peanuts and we appreciate your hard work and contribution to the ACA Band Program.
Little Big Horn Competition in Opp
We'd like to congratulate the ACA Band for scoring a " 1 " which is a "Superior" in this past Saturday's competition. The Band also won a trophies for "Most Entertaining Band" and "Best Solo Performances". Our Color Guard and Percussion walked away with "Best In Class" as well. Great job, kids! Your hard work paid off!
Booster Membership Drive
Now that marching season is coming to an end, we are going to focus on our Booster Memberships. We have 119 Band Families with only about 55 families contributing to the Boosters. That's only 46%. The ACA Band program operates primarily on money raised by the Boosters. We would love 100% participation by the end of December! We have several that give $10 a month, and there are others that have given a lump sum. Whichever you prefer, we appreciate any contribution to the Boosters and Band Program! Will you consider joining by the end of this year? If you'd like more information, please email acabands@yahoo.com or traceykirksey@knology.net.
