Hope everyone had a great break! I am going to hold off on commenting any more about the noise in the gym during the last concert. Look for a handout and a "soapbox moment" at the next concert!
The date for our solo festival at PCM has somehow ended up as the same as the Science Fair results program. Because of this, I have decided that the solo festival is going to be an optional event. Below, I posted a copy of the note I sent home with 7th and 8th graders today concerning that event. It will also be available on the Band and Choir page of the MS website. Sometimes things happen and we have to make due with the situation as best as we can! If you have any questions or concerns about this, don't hesitate to call or email me.

Every winter, students in the band program work on solo and small group pieces for contest, usually held each February. In the past, this event has fallen on a weekend. This year it was moved to Thursday, February 5th at PCM Middle School. There is a conflict, as this day is also the evening of the science fair awards at CMMS. In prior years, this contest was required. Because of the circumstances with the science fair, I am going to have this contest be optional. Students wanting to participate should notify Mr. Wipperman by Friday, January 9th. There will be times scheduled at PCM from 4-8 PM, and I have been told that the person doing the scheduling that they will make sure that those students participating will have an early time slot. Again, this is going to be an optional event where the school does not provide transportation to the event. If there are any questions, please contact Mr. Wipperman at 363-4282 or bwipperman@mail.colfax-mingo.k12.ia.us.
Thanks!
Mr. Wipperman
