Farewell Summer Band 2008

OHS Band Members, each of you deserve a huge pat on the back for completing this year's Summer Band camp here at OHS. I want to especially THANK those students who attended every single rehearsal and showed up on time ready to go. You are the leaders that will take the OHS Band to new heights. You have already broken so many ceilings and/or expectations that people have placed on you, keep it up. Most people believe that we as a human society have come to fear failure in all aspects of our life. I do not agree with this statement one bit. Instead, I believe that we as a society have come to fear how far we can go and what heights we can actually achieve. We actually fear the thought of being the best. Students, have a great first day of school on Monday and remember that you are a part of a family unlike any other and every person in our family is valued to the most extreme degree. Have a Great School Year.

First Milestone Reached

Congrats! Band you have reached your first milestone for this marching band season. you have completed all of the sets that we will be marching for the first football game in one week. It is time to CLEAN, clean, CLEAN what we have learned. We must now go back to the beginning and make sure every turn, every horn press, every band member knows where each set begins and ends. Yes, we still have a lot of hard work in front of us before next week. We must also learn pregame. Which we will be learning tomorrow evening. Thank you for continuing to allow us to motivate and push you to become the best band in the land. See you tomorrow.

Let's continue to have great rehearsals and NEVER let up. Always continue to do your best and NEVER be content to rest and say "Oh, thats good enough." See you tomorrow.
