Hello band, it has been awhile.
How are your holidays, I hope you enjoy and make the best out of it!

Anyways, I just have a couple of annoucenments here that need to be made known to you guys.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1)
The next band practice is on Saturday, 2nd of June. Starts sharply at 8.00 am. Please report to the band room at least 15 minutes before time.



2)
From now onwards, attendance for band would be taken very seriously. We would not accept any non-committed members in the band.

If you are going overseas or have any medical or valid reasons. Please inform your Section Leader or any band member beforehand. So that we would know where you have gone to.

On the next band practice, you must be able to produce a Medical Certificate of a parent's letter to prove your absence on the day of practice. Please hand it to Albert.

Or if you have any reasons to be absent before any band practice. There will be a file near the Conductor's stand. Inside the file are 'leave applications'. Your applications will be looked through by Mr Chiang and may or may not be approved.

Going AWOL ( Absence without leave ) is not accepted. You must have a valid reason for not attending band practices. If not you will be given a NIL attendance for that day and if you do not fill the attendance quota, you would be kicked out from Band. In addition, you would have to face the punishments that will be carried out by the TIC and the exco.


3)
On Saturday, those who had ordered their SYF photos, please bring the money. We need to clear the payments ASAP.


4)
For ticket sales, those who had not collected their tickets. Please approach Shawn or Albert for the ticket booklets to sell. Everyone should sell as much tickets as possible! We have limited time to clear the ticket sales. So I hope everyone would cooperate. :)


5)
Those who are still holding on to Original scores of Clari-funkey, Carnival of Venice & In Times of Triumph. Please return these original scores to Hui Xiong or Russell. If you need the scores. Get the photocopied version from them.


6)
This announcement only applies to the Sec 1's.

There will be a scales test for you guys soon.
The scales tested will be :

Concert Bb Major

Sec 1's work hard! Let us put on a good show on the 29th of July. If you have any doubts about music, you can always ask your seniors, do not hesistate to ask them. Seniors also should help your juniors along, and let us be one band.
