HMS Band Parents:
If your HMS Band student would like to ride on the float in the homecoming parade tonight, please have them meet at 5:00pm at the 4 diamonds. They will not be marching, no instruments needed. Please wear your "I'm with the Band" shirt if you own one. If not, just wear something Bulldog/Red/Black. You will need to pick up your child at the square when the parade has finished. Please make a plan with your child as to wear to meet, due to the size of the crowd expected.

Please see the attached flier regarding the upcoming Homer's for the Heart Annual Wiffle Ball Tournament. Come out and support a great cause!
