 Dear Parents,
On Saturday, August 26th, the marching band will be traveling to Sioux Falls to participate in the Roosevelt Marching Clinic. This is a great opportunity to work on our show EARLY in the season and get some great feedback from the amazing clinicians they bring in. I know there are some conflicts with other activities and we expect that everyone that does not have a conflict is in attendance (this has been on the schedule since March). If some of you have activities that you can attend and then make it to the clinic, that would be greatly appreciated! Below is the itinerary for the day: 8.26.17 6:15AM - LOAD BUSES 6:30AM - DEPART FOR SIOUX FALLS 7:30AM - SET UP FOR CLINIC 8:00AM - VISUAL CLINIC 10:00AM - MUSIC CLINIC 11:30AM - LUNCH (is provided for everyone for free) 12:30PM - LEADERSHIP SESSION 2:30PM - GE CLINIC 4:30PM - DEPART FOR MITCHELL 5:30PM - APPROXIMATE ARRIVAL Roosevelt provides a t-shirt that we will be wearing at the clinic. EVERYONE will be responsible for bringing the following items:
If anyone has any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, Ryan Stahle Director of Bands ryan.stahle@k12.sd.us

Dear Band Parents: We have two students who would be a great addition to the music program at Mitchell High School but we need a host family for each them. Erik is a 17 year old Swedish boy who loves music. He plays guitar, piano and bass and he sings. He also enjoys running, working out and being outdoors. “I would like to live a common American life and experience their high school spirit,” he said. Linus is terrific 17 year old boy from Germany who plays in a band, loves music and has won a regional championship with his basketball team. He also hopes to play some American soccer. Linus has three brothers and wants to get to know his host family before he arrives, so he can bring the things he needs. “I am really interested in learning new things about the American way of life and culture. I would love to show my host family a bit of my German culture as well.” Please consider giving these young people an opportunity to experience our lifestyle and our great music program. If you would like more information, please contact me or Virginia Wishard Lambert at vwlambert@gmail.com or text at 605-940-1311. Thanks so much! Mr. Stahle
