Hi all,
We have received information that there is concert in the Bella Rose Auditorium on Tuesday March 5, beginning at 6 pm. It is likely that parking will be challenging and we will not have use of the Green Room. Hope to see you at the HCB rehearsal in spite of this situation.

Hi All
If you removed any music from the Funny Books for the concert at Camp Hill, please put it back in the correct order. Also, please put Red Covered Bridge back in the Funny Book.
Please bring your regular folder to the rehearsal. Some new music will be handed out.
There is a strong chance of a snow event on Tuesday afternoon and overnight to Wednesday. Please check your e-mail before leaving for band. If things are cancelled, I will let you know as soon as possible.
Thanks Dave

Hi All
You do not need to bring any of the “Chorales” music on Sunday. We will not be playing any chorales at Camp Hill. Please bring a music stand and a light if needed. See you at 1:15 pm.
Thanks Dave
