9/15/22 update: A giant thank you to the parents who signed up to volunteer on Tag Day, and to ALL our students for clearing the day in your schedules! Hail Saxons!
Also, note that Wednesday 3-5 pm marching band rehearsals start Sept 21 (thru Oct 19).
9/13/22 update: Tag Day is this Saturday, Sept 17! Parent drivers, you'll spend the day in the air-conditioned comfort of your car with an easy-to-follow map. Students will hop out at the top of a street and you'll slowly cruise to the end, where they'll hop back in as you head to another street. You'll hear funny stories from students and have an impactful, memorable and easy day. Thank you for signing up!
8/30/22 update: The Langley Band Spirit Wear Shop closed at noon on Thurs, Sept 8. Thank you to those who ordered, and enjoy! We have great items (and sizes) for both students and parents, however the band doesn't buy extras and we haven't determined if we'll have another store this year, so stock up now on winter items AND ALSO items for the spring, summer and next year's band camp.
