Welcome Back From Christmas Break
Second semester has begun meaning the concert band season is in full swing. With the massive group we saw on the stage at the Winter Concert now split into Symphonic and Concert bands everyone has a little more elbow room but plenty of work ahead. District solo and ensemble contests are approaching quickly along with Pageant of Bands. The State Large Ensemble Festival will again be hosted by Holt this year in April.
"David's Cookies" Cookie Dough Fundraiser is Here!!
Our third major fundraiser of the year, the annual “David’s Cookies” Cookie Dough Fundraiser, has officially kicked off! David’s Cookies is well known on the East Coast and has been in business for over 25 years. This is the same company the guard used in the Fall of 2010 with excellent results. Check out all of the details on the Fundraiser page.
New Scrip Calendars for November and December
New calendars for November and December Scrip sales are now available on the Scrip page. You don't know what Scrip is you say? Scrip is a great way to use your everyday purchases to make money for the band. By purchasing gift cards through the band boosters a percentage of what you spend on gas or groceries or at your local restaurants goes back to the band. Check out the Scrip page for details on how the program works and all the participating businesses.
Charms is Up and Running
Log in to your students account today!
We have instituted a new online bookeeping system this year. It is called Charms Office Assistant. Your student was sent home from band camp with information that contained their personal login ID. You can now use this ID to log into Charms by going to www.charmsoffice.com. If you do not have your students ID please email Nancy nancybuell@rocketmail.com.
Once you are logged in you can check on your students account, view their uniform information, verify what forms have been turned in and more. Please verify that all of the contact information is correct. The email addresses with each student will be what is used for future notices.
An important feature we are using within Charms will be the calendar. This is your opportunity to keep up with event schedules and volunteer needs. Please take the time to look through the dates and volunteer for those events you have expressed interest in. For more information on volunteering, including all of the necessary forms for the School District go to the Volunteer page.
Find Us on Facebook
We now can be found on Facebook as Wentzville Holt Band. Connect with us there as another way to keep up to date on everything related to the band.
