Hello Everyone:
Just a few final reminders before Thanksgiving.
First of all- we've heard from IHSA that students may assist with selling programs at the football championships on Saturday. There is a great opportunity and we still need people to donate some time. Please check out the volunteer info below. Students please think about asking a friend and working a 3 hour shift where you can mostly talk to the people you sign up with.
Here's the info:

Also, I'm attaching a field trip permission slip for the midwest band and orchestra clinic on Dec. 19. If your student would like to attend, it needs to be returned next Monday, Dec. 2. I'm sending this digitally because many students were absent today and I did not get it to all of the classes yesterday.
A final reminder that we hope to see you all at the House Cafe tonight at 7 pm.
If we don't see you, please have a happy and safe Thanksgiving,
Mr. Lundin
Hello Everyone:
First of all I'd like to thank everyone who participated in making the ILMEA district VIII music festival a huge success last weekend. I cannot tell you how many people truly enjoy coming to DHS and making music for a day here. Thanks to all of you for helping to provide such a positive experience for so many young people.
That said, there are still plenty of things happening with here with our bands. For example, next Tuesday, Nov. 26, the DHS Jazz Ensemble will be performing at the House Cafe in its annual Fall concert at 7pm. This promises to be an especially exciting concert as we will be hosting NIU Professor of Jazz studies Ron Carter as a guest soloist. Professor Carter is a world-renowned jazz artist and educator and this year marks his last year at NIU. We're very excited to have him share his talents and expertise with the students here at DHS. It's an event not to be missed and a great way to kick off Thanksgiving break. Please spread the word and come ready to swing. I should also note that the House is opening just for us that evening as they're not officially re-opened yet and I'm told they do not think that the revamped kitchen will be prepared to serve meals yet (so grab a bite before you come please).
Additionally, our music boosters has received a tremendous opportunity to raise some serious money (potentially thousands of dollars) for our programs through helping IHSA host the state football tournament at NIU after Thanksgiving. It's easy work that requires a minimal time commitment and is sure to make money for our programs. Please consider helping. See the following note from our boosters or check out the attached document to volunteer:

Fundraiser pickup
Hello everyone:
If you or your child sold anything through the Fall Catalog Fundraiser, those items will be available for pickup tomorrow from 1:30-5:30. Please remind your child to pick up their box(es) as it is very difficult for us to store anything that's not picked up (especially cookie dough). Pick up will be in the DHS Black Box theatre.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
thank you,
Mr. Lundin

One last call for volunteers and pie
Hello Everyone:
This is just a final call for some extra volunteers to work tomorrow for the ILMEA District 8 music festival here at DHS. We are in particular need of some help for lunches between 10:30-1:30. To volunteer, please contact Carol Lee Duffin at duffincl3@yahoo.com
Also, this is a final reminder that you can still order pie until midnight tonight! We've done really well so far, but we're still a little short of our goal, so please consider helping, if you've not do so already. The only way to order now is to visit www.marketday.com and search for school 21072.
Thanks for all that you do to support our kids,
Mr. L

Marching Band Schedule
Date: October 21, 2013 9:59:56 AM CDT
Hello Everyone:
It's hard to believe, but in one week's time, our marching band season will effectively be complete for the year. With that said, there is still quite a bit going on this week and through to the end of the semester. It seems as though people having been successfully using www.dhsband.org to follow the calendar. That said, many of you have probably noticed that this week is quite bizarre. We were unable to secure the stadium on either of our normal nights, so we are practicing on Tuesday and Thursday (which unfortunately creates conflicts for all of our choir/ orchestra students). I understand that the students all need to attend their concerts and am asking everyone to attend our practice for as long as is manageable. Luckily, we should have ample time to teach what little new material is needed before Friday night in this time frame. We will allow students to perform on Friday if they have to leave early for their concert on Thursday.
Beginning next week, we will start practicing from 3-5 pm on Mondays and Thursdays (with some exceptions, so again please continue to follow the calendar). We begin our transition to a basketball pep band at this point. We will explain all necessary information during our first meeting, so I'd ask that you wait until after that meeting before emailing questions (hopefully I can answer most of them next Monday).
Finally, our last event of the year is the Sycamore Pumpkin Parade on Sunday. The DeKalb Music Boosters have always been gracious enough to feed the band after this event and I am forwarding the following message on their behalf:
*October 27, Pumpkin Parade Lunch
Music Boosters provides a hot dog lunch for the marching band and color guard (DHS, HMS, and CRMS) after they march in the Pumpkin Parade. We need volunteers to help serve that lunch. Time is roughly 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., and you will be able to see the bands in the parade. We need approximately 4 people at 11 a.m., and 8-10 the remaining 3 hours. Please contact Jen Conley at 815.762.4585 or musicandhealing@yahoo.com.
Thank you everyone for your continued support. As always, please feel free to call or email if you have any questions.

Hello Everyone:
I've received a number of questions about the band's schedule this weekend, so I wanted to make sure everyone knows exactly what our plan is.
Tonight we have a regularly scheduled football game with a 5:45 call time. We will try to expedite going home as many students have an important day on Saturday. We will however, stay till the end of the game as we usually do, but we plan on cleaning and getting out of there very quickly though.
For Saturday, students who are taking an IMEA audition should plan on arriving at DHS at 10:00 AM. For those few students who are auditioning before lunch (12:00 and earlier)- you should arrive at DHS by 7:00 AM. It is totally ok if you parents plan on driving their child to Sterling HS for their audition, but if that's not the case, please make sure you arrive on time, the buses cannot afford to wait for you.
Sunday is of course or big day as a marching band. The call time for the day is 11AM. The Cortland town parade steps off at 1pm. The students are fed a small meal as part of this event. When we're done, we're coming back to DHS just repack our equipment and maybe practice for a few minutes. We are planning on getting to Marengo in time for the students to be able to watch some of the other bands who perform ahead of us. It is recommended that students bring either a bagged dinner or some money to buy food before we perform at the competition. We perform at 8 and I predict we'll get home between 10-10:30. We're all then very happy to not have school on Monday.
I am attaching a performance schedule and some information regarding Sunday's event.
Please feel free to call or email if you have any questions,
hope to see many of you this weekend,
Steve Lundin
