OSU Homecoming Concert w/Cleveland HS

A great day for our Wind Ensemble on Friday.

We had the opportunity to take some time and rehearse on this stage in the afternoon before taking a short tour of the OSU campus.

The ensemble performed admirably and represented PPS and Cleveland HS with class. They prepared this music in 3 weeks, after performing another set of music on September 27 at our annual Playathon.

The Wind Ensemble has proven to be a fabulous group preparing this first performance in 2 weeks. (4 rehearsals). The OSUMB Spirit and Sound was an absolute blast (literally…we all were issued ear plugs).

Here is a link to a video of the performance.

Cleveland plays first. Gary Riler was given the honor to conduct the Alma mater at the end.

Pie Fundraiser

Each year students have the opportunity to sell pies to friends and family to offset their cost to participate in band trips such as the Disney trip next Spring.

Order forms for the Pie Fundraiser have gone home with students. Order forms are due Oct 24th and 25th. Pies will be available for pick up on Wednesday, November 13.

Ask for Volunteers

Cleveland High School Bands would not be the outstanding program it is without the financial support we receive from our community. A large part of that support comes in the form of sponsorships from local businesses. Each year thousands of dollars of band expenses are paid by money we receive these sponsors.

Friends of Cleveland Bands currently does not have a member managing sponsorships. This could lead to a significant hole in our band budget for this year.

We are asking for volunteers to help with the tasks that the sponsorship chairperson normally manages. Each task is relatively small and we hope some of you could take on one or two tasks to help keep sponsors a source of funding for our bands.

Please look at this Sign Up Genius page to see if you can help us.
