Band Banquet

Ryan Gilbert — Fri, 20 Apr 2012 12:42:39 +0000

The end of the year is fast approaching, which means the band banquet is coming soon. Reserve your place at this memorable ceremony by downloading and returning the reservation form to the dropbox in the band building lobby. This event allows us to celebrate the amazing achievements of the band throughout the year, as well as the successes of many of our individual students, especially the senior band members who have dedicated four years of their lives to the Dobyns-Bennett Band Program.

The banquet will be held at Meadowview Convention Center at 6:00pm on Friday, May 4. See you there!

Percussion Placement This Week

jwalsh — Mon, 16 Apr 2012 01:18:20 +0000

Drumline instrumental placements will be held this week, Monday-Friday from 3:15-5:00. If you are a percussion student who will be a member in the Dobyns-Bennett Band next year, come to the band room at D-B to practice for a spot in the award-winning Dobyns-Bennett Drumline. Every student is guaranteed a spot in the percussion section, but placement on a particular drum will be decided later in the week by the drum staff.

Good luck, and see you after school!

Eat Wings, Raise Funds

Ryan Gilbert — Mon, 19 Mar 2012 19:44:35 +0000

Make sure to download and print this flyer upon arrival.

Enjoy!!
