A reminder about our first football game of the season....this is an away game at Central York. Game time is at 7:00pm with pre-game activities beginning 30 minutes before. Our band will perform at halftime. Rehearsal is immediately after school beginning at 3:20pm - 4:30pm. Dinner break at 4:30pm - 5:30pm and the busses will pull out at 5:30pm. Hope to see you at the game supporting our kids!

Mark you calendars now for Band Day - September 24th - where our middle school band students join us for an evening of fun and music on and off the field.

and saving the best for last.....Our tractor has been on its "Last Wheel" for a very long time, but thanks to a generous donation from Mr. Clair Worley we have a brand new John Deere tractor to help our marching band pit on and off the field with ease. Mr. Worley had children go through the band program at West York and now his grandchildren are going through the same program. We can't express our gratitude enough to him for this donation. Without it we would have been hand pulling the cart across the parking lots and fields this fall! We have attached a picture of Mr. Worley, Beth Brickner, President and John Myers, Trailer Chairperson. If you know Mr. Worley or have the pleasure of meeting him, please be sure to shake his hand and offer your personal thanks!

Thanks for your continued support to our Band Booster organization. We need everyone's help to make this successful for the students - at all levels!! If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to share them with us at this email address or contact any of the executive members or even your band director.

Have a great week!
