Musical Greetings,
I have been busy getting everything ready here for the return of music making, and I am excited!
Hopefully, I will get a chance to see you at Open House this Wednesday, August 31.
At this point, my plan is to be at Boring Middle from 5:00-6:00, race to Cedar Ridge to be available from 6:15-7:00. We'll see how that works! If we miss each other, please feel free to drop me an e-mail at deanna.mcglothin@ortrail.k12.or.us.
If your student is just starting band, be sure to read my advice about how best to get a good quality instrument here.
We will be holding an instrument rental night as well. Click here for that information.
If you want a course syllabus, click here.
Uniform order, click here for the beginning band uniform, click here for Intermediate/Advanced band uniform (they are different).
Last, for a tentative schedule of band performances, click here. I will update this sheet as dates get solidified for the March events. Please note that beginning band students do not participate in the March performances.
Thanks, and I hope to be able to see you soon!

Winter Update
Greetings!
It's hard to believe that November is here already. We have been hard at work in band class with learning new music and new musical concepts and we are excited to share it with you in December.
At Cedar Ridge, our winter concert is scheduled for December 10th in the gymnasium at 1:20 pm and the choir will be joining us again. Thunder Band will be performing a transcription of selections from The Nutcracker, a cool tune called The Great Locomotive Chase, our old favorite, Sleigh Ride, and some other holiday tunes. Mountain Storm band has made huge strides in the last month, and you will be amazed to hear them perform several tunes that have melody, harmony, and bass lines.
At Boring Middle, our concert is scheduled for December 17th at 8:30 am. The Advanced Band will be performing a selection called Smithsonian Suite that features music composed for four of the museums located within the Institute. Also on the program will be Christmas Finale, Sleigh Ride, and some other holiday tunes. Bears Beginning Band has also made great strides, and they are excited to show you how much they have improved!
In other news, both schools are selling Holiday Wreaths for $20 each for the next week. Sale ends Friday, November 13th. Don't miss this chance to have a lovely handmade wreath to spruce up your home for the holidays.
Finally, all Thunder and Advanced Band students are invited to perform at the Firwood Holiday Bazaar on Saturday, November 21st from 10:55-11:30. I sent home a slip for students to fill out and return if they are interested in this extra opportunity.
Thank you, and we will see you soon!

Spring Update!
STEP UP NIGHT: Monday, May 4 at Boring Middle School; Tuesday, May 5 at Cedar Ridge Middle School. Sponsored by Beacock Music. We have step up instruments right now in each school for students to try out during class. Here is a link describing what the differences are between a student model instrument and a step up. Students may also check out an instrument to bring it home to show it to you! Please e-mail me or call me to schedule an appointment during Step Up Night to talk to Phil Hodapp from Beacock to discuss details about purchase. Trade-ins are welcome, and payment plans can be discussed.
SPRING CONCERTS: Thursday, May 21 at 7:00 PM at Cedar Ridge Middle School; Thursday, May 28 at 7:00 PM at Boring Middle School. We will be performing music from the movies, as well as music featuring the different instrument sections in our band!
