Final vote for NEW UNIFORMS!

11/30/2013

 
Dear SHS Band Students and Parents,

I apologize for not emailing everyone earlier; our school email has been down since Thursday, so I hope this message is delivered to everyone.  Please forward this information to anyone you can think of.

Thank you to everyone who voted on the new band uniforms.  Based on how everyone has voted, and based off of what "fashion" designs will last the next 15 years, I have created a final list of 4 uniform ideas.  The top vote(s) will be the design(s) that we have mockups made for (hopefully in time for the december 18th concert).  Please go to the Student Document Page to vote. 

Please vote as soon as possible, because I would like to contact our designers early next week.

Hope everyone had a fantastic holiday!  See you on Monday!

Mr. Geller

Voting for NEW MARCHING BAND UNIFORMS!

11/25/2013

 
Good Afternoon SABRE Band Family,

As some of you already know, we are in the process of getting new marching band uniforms for next year! This is a very exciting time for not only the band department, but the entire streamwood community as well. With that being said, it is important to me that I get your feedback regarding the design of the uniforms. Currently we are working with two companies who have delivered sketches based on my ideas and previous traditions. I have uploaded these sketches to the "student document" portion of our website (www.streamwoodbands.com), however for copyright purposes, this page is password protected. In order to maintain the security of this page I will only be sharing the password through email, which was sent out earlier today. I ask that you do not share this password with anyone outside of the SHS band family. If you still need the password, please feel free to give me a call or send me an email. 

On the voting page you will see the various designs. Please look over the designs and follow the instructions on how to vote for your favorite. VOTING WILL OPEN THIS AFTERNOON AND WILL CONTINUE THROUGH MIDNIGHT TOMORROW (Tuesday November 26) so place your vote ASAP! 


 Our goal is to have a design chosen by the end of this week, so that we can have a mock-up created and delivered in time to view for our December 18th Seasonal Serenade concert. Please keep checking the website for updates and to see when everything is uploaded. I am hoping to have it ready for voting by 3pm. As always, please feel free to email me with any questions or concerns. This is a very exciting time and I am looking forward to seeing what you vote for. 

 Thank you, Mr. Geller

Great Concert Last Night!

11/1/2013

 
Dear Students and Families,

I wanted to congratulate everyone on a fantastic concert last night!  During the concert I mentioned how the goal of any musician (or athlete) is to have the best performance on the night of the concert/game.  I can honestly say that this was our best performance.  As a matter of fact, one of my colleagues was thoroughly impressed by the fact that we performed better as the concert went on.   This is an incredible accomplishment that most "professional" musicians struggle with. I know that we will continue to challenge ourselves musically and academically, and continue to put forward performances that we can be proud of.

Furthermore, I would like to thank all of the parents who volunteered to sell tickets and pass out programs.  Without your dedication, we would not be able to put forward such a polished performance.  I encourage more families to get involved in some way as it is a very rewarding experience.

I am very proud of everyone, and I am already looking forward to our Seasonal Serenade December 18th.

Mr. Geller
