Can't make the A-Band oppty this year, sadly. Concert band looks good though.

Post is a bit late for the April 17 2009 date...

Hey, Alumni! If you have yet to register for the historic April 17th concert, please call Pat in the office to register.

Remember, this is the concert where we are premiering a commissioned piece for the 100th year of BGSU.

Be a part of history.

If you need further information, send me a pm or email.

Thanks!

Will be there on the 17th. Anyone know how many ended up registering, and if the alumni will be playing anything on their own?

It was couple dozen. This weekend is a busy competition weekend in Ohio so I'm told. That caused the turnout to be relatively light. We will have student ringers to fill out the voicing.

I'll be there and yes, I'm practicing.
