Dear parents of high school band members,
At Masco we pride ourselves not ony on how great our band sounds,
but also on how we look. Both are very important. Masco Music Parents assists Mr. O'Keefe by making sure the
members of the band have the proper clothing. The uniform requirements for the school band are listed above.
Every
band member needs a red band shirt and red band jacket to march in the September 29 opening day of the Topsfield Fair parade
(mandatory) and for the football games (pep band is an optional activity). You may get these from a sibling or friend
who has been in the band or you may order one from Masco Music Parents' Association (MMPA).
Girls:
a concert band skirt must be purchased from MMPA. For the purpose of uniformity, the girls all wear the same skirt.
You may not wear your own skirt.
Boys: you provide your own tuxedo. A limited
supply are available for rent from MMPA. A tuxedo "swap" will be held on Wednesday, September 26.
If MMPA does not have a tuxedo that fits you, you can purchase one from Mr. Tux at the Liberty Tree Mall for about $100.
Mention Masco Music to get this special price. Mr. Tux will be taking orders until September 30.
If
you have any questions, you may call or email me.
Sincerely,
Ruth Lackie
