2018 Wildcat Marching Band Apparel Sale

We are once again partnering with Ares Sportswear, a local company that distributes nation wide, to offer a custom designed and organized spirit wear store.  We have tons of options this year- both old and new designs, clothing options, and accessories.  Everything from ordering to payment is handled online through their very user friendly website.

Feel free to send the link to family and friends, near and far.  The store is open until Sunday, August 12th at midnight.  All profits are put toward the Handshue Private Lesson Scholarship fund.

Parent Meeting – August 6th

We will be having an important parent meeting on Monday, August 6th.  Parents will be gathering at 4:30 in the cafeteria at Davidson for a brief meet-and-greet with our music booster officers.  We will have veteran parents there to help answer any questions you may have, and there will be opportunities for you to see how you can be more involved!  We will also have light snacks and refreshments.

When camp ends at 5:00, we will have a very brief meeting in the auditorium.  I will be covering things to expect for new marching band parents, as well as other important upcoming events including our 2019 summer Disney trip!  I hope you can all make it- it will have been a long day for us all, so rest assured, we will keep things brief!

Volunteer Badges!

Just a reminder that if you have any plans to travel with the band or assist in any capacity, you must make sure you have an up to date volunteer badge.  We are always looking for parents to help out because we can’t do what we do without you!  Please click on the link below to apply online for a badge.  It is quick and easy to fill out, but it can take a couple weeks to get your badge so we encourage you to do it early and be done with it!  Thanks!

Superhero 5K

We had a FANTASTIC event this year and that is thanks to all those who helped organize, manage, fundraise, advertise, and run the event.  It takes many months and hours of planning to get an event like this to be as successful as ours and we are so grateful to everyone for their work.

Stay tuned for details about next year’s event and how you can get involved!  Please reach out if you have ideas, feedback, or want to express interest in helping for future races.  We are always eager to improve and love welcoming new faces into our community.

Many thanks to everyone who helped make Tag Day a success.  We surpassed our profits from last year and that is all thanks to the wonderful support of the Hilliard Davidson community who all graciously gave to the band members as they canvased the neighborhoods.  We are so grateful to be in a place that values music and the arts and we thank every person who has or does support our endeavors.

You as well as family, friends, neighbors, and loved ones far and wide can still donate to band.
