The homecoming game will be<br />

Friday, September 26th and we want<br />

you to participate! <strong>Alumni</strong> Band<br />

Members may play on the field, play in<br />

the stands, or just sit in the stands<br />

with the band and relive the “good old<br />

days.”<br />

For those who choose to play with the high school band on<br />

the field, there will be practice Thursday, September 25th<br />

from 7-9 p.m. in the band room. We would like you to attend<br />

this practice if you are planning to march in the show. If you<br />

are playing on the field, or in the stands, please come to the<br />

band room at 6:00 p.m. on game day.<br />

We have green alumni T-shirts for $10. You can pre-order if<br />

you want your year put on the back, or you can get a plain<br />

one the day of the game. Please email me with your shirt<br />

order and size by Sept 10th to allow time for having your year<br />

put on. If you want to pre-order a shirt, please make a check<br />

out to STVM Band Boosters and mail it to 1019 Amelia Ave.,<br />

Akron, Ohio 44302<br />

We have a limited supply of percussion, so we need to know<br />

ASAP if you need an instrument. We can’t promise you one,<br />

but we will try!<br />

I can be reached by e-mail at irishbandalumni@yahoo.com,<br />

or by phone (330) 867-1137. Please leave your name, shirt<br />

size and year, and instrument. RSVP by Sept. 10th to allow us<br />

time to get music together for you. If you cannot participate<br />

in this event but want to be informed of future alumni band<br />

activities via e-mail, please contact me with your address.<br />

We want to make this the biggest and best alumni band<br />

reunion ever!<br />
