OLM Band

PLEASE COME JOIN THE OLM BAND – For those of you who thought about it but aren’t sure come check us out. Think long term – Band is a great item to be able to list on your college application. It has been stated that children who play in a band do better on tests and with learning a foreign language. In high school the bands are awesome. Being a memeber of a band also promotes great teamwork skills and teaches your child responsiblity. Please consider checking out our school band.

11/13/11 – Update

Our next booster meeting for the band is Wednesday Nov 30th at 6:30 please attend – it counts toward service hours.

On Saturday Nov. 12th we had a band review that was hosted by Golden Valley High School. Our wonderful little band competed against other Junior High Schools. We did not win any trophies but they did their best and we are proud of them. Thank you to all the parents who showed up to cheer on our band memebers.

We marched in the Veterans Day parade on Friday Nov. 11th. They did so well. They were little troopers marching in the rain without even complaining. Go OLM Band – you are doing so well.

Thursday we played for the Veterans – we missed our 4th graders but did a great job with who we had.
