Marching Band Schedule & Updates
I hope everyone did well on their finals and I hope you enjoy your Monday off!
You deserve it!
We're back to regularly scheduled classes this week with
some exciting stuff just around the corner!
OMG Bylaws Update!
Only one more week to go over our Bylaw revisions. If you have anything you'd like to discuss, please be prepared to do so at our next OMG Meeting.
Our Oiler Music Guild Bylaws (nonprofit rules/guidelines) have gone through a bit of an upgrade and revision. We have corrected some info regarding program directors and added info regarding video meetings.
We will be discussing and voting on the change at the February 6th meeting.

OMG Needs You!
How can you help?
OMG Annual Banquet Planning - help plan our Awards Banquet!
We are currently trying to come up with catering options for the Banquet,
let us know if you know of a good catering company/restaurant that would be reasonably priced to feed about 200 people.
OMG 25/26 Board Nominating Committee - help find volunteers for next year's OMG Board!
FINAL WHITE UNIFORM WASHING!
Tuesday, January 28th
We we're unable to get enough sign ups for Saturday, so this has been rescheduled for Tuesday. Please HELP!!!!!
We have our new uniforms, so the LAST TIME the Marching Band will wear the white uniforms is for Picture Day on 2/3. This means all of the white uniforms need to be washed before then. Even our extra uniforms will be washed to get ready to sell them! So, this time we'll have teams of 2 or 3 people take 20-30 uniforms to laundromats for washing. This will be much quicker and more efficient. Cleaning instructions will be included.

Additional Notes for Parents and Students-
- Second semester has started! We’ll mostly be returning to a normal schedule this week, but we’ll also have honor band sectionals on Wednesday night. A couple of things to look forward to: We’ll be doing band photos on Monday, Feb 3rd during 6th period. It will be our last time in our white uniforms! This week students will be bringing home order forms for photos…please make sure to fill them out and have students bring them to school on Feb 3rd. There should also be an online ordering system, and I will send that link out once I get that from the photographer.
- Future Oiler Night is the next day on Feb 4th at 5:30pm. If you know of any prospective Oilers make sure to let them know to stop by the Band and Color Guard booth!
- Our Drumline parent info meeting is this Friday 6-6:30pm. Come get some important info for the season and see your students rehearsing the drumline show as well!
