Southern Star Band Festival - Google Form

Southern Star - This is a Band Festival we plan to participate in at Six Flags, Atlanta.  We would go on that Friday and perform before judges.  We would also get a mini-clinic with our band right there on stage.  Then, on Saturday, we would all enjoy the park that day until the evening.  Saturday evening there is a closing ceremony for all bands involved, we would all attend this together.  Students would also have another one day pass to Six Flags to use any time throughout the year.  If you have a season pass already, this can be factored into the cost as savings to you.  There will be a cost for this trip, somewhere around $100 per student.  Chaperone opportunities are available too.  This is our major trip for the Spring Semester.  We would like 100% of the group to go as we arrange our pieces with each of you in mind.

Fine Arts - Google Form

This is a competition that is held in our District (state of Georgia) and then qualified entries are invited to Nationals in Orlando, FL.  There are many solo and group opportunities for instrumentalists.  All Festival information is included in the following form.  This is an INTEREST FORM only, formal registration for the Festival will come closer to the event once we have our individual and group entries all formed.

Solo & Ensemble Band Festival - Paper Form (pdf)

This is a great opportunity for solos and ensembles to get critique from qualified judges.  This feedback is so helpful as each student and group advances in their skill.  We encourage students to do this, and it is a loose format, so they can play their song of choice, as long as it’s approved by the Band Director.  We have had soloists, duets, small and large ensembles all participate in the past.

Please turn this form in to Mr. Hurt, Mr. Melton, or Mrs. Manwaring with payment by FEBRUARY 1, 2022
