Friday, October 11th, 2024

We are excited to welcome our 8th grade students from Lincoln Junior High and Grimsley Junior High Bands for a preview into our high school band program on Friday, October 11th!

  • Students will be bussed over from their junior highs after school and join our high school band for an all-band practice before the varsity football game.

  • After practice, 8th grade students will meet with their high school mentors for a short activity and to get to know one another.

  • Students will walk back to the band room with their mentors where they will be fed (pizza) and receive their t-shirt to wear to the game. **If you’d like to volunteer to help serve the students dinner, please meet us in the grassy area outside the BWHS band room at 4:30pm.

  • Students will line-up and troop over to the stadium with our high school band around 6:15pm and join us in the bandstands at the Wolverine Stadium.
