MARCHING BAND FINAL PERFORMANCE!!!!!! 11/18/21 7:15pm. Remember that evening in August, when we watched our students play the first part of their show after just two weeks of band camp?! It was exciting then, but NOW, please join us in watching their final showcase presentation of "Up in the Clouds," put on just for family, friends, and the community! This is a great opportunity for the families that haven't had the chance to come to a football game or to a competition to enjoy the awesome award-winning show! For your convenience, we are offering individual safe boxed dinners from Stonefire Grill that you can purchase for your student, and for your family to enjoy before the show too! ORDER HERE! If your child would like to purchase dinner to eat together with their section/friends, please order it for them. This is pre-sale only.
WINTER COLORGUARD: Interested in joining this awesome ensemble? If you or anyone you know is interested in joining the San Marino Colorguard, please complete and share the Google form link: www.tinyurl.com/smhsguard
Workshop/Auditions will be Tuesdays and Thursdays (11/16-12/9) 5:30pm-8:30pm
Instead of a traditional audition process, we will be having open workshops and auditions during this period. We highly recommend attending all dates as we will be teaching basic skills on dance and flag spinning in preparation for the incoming competitive season. This will also give prospective members a look into what colorguard is before committing to join the team the following semester.
Parents: Join the colorguard instructors, Mr. Folsom, and the Boosters at the MANDATORY PARENT MEETING, on 12/2/21, at 7pm.

T-SHIRT AND CONCERT PROGRAM SPONSORSHIPS
PATRONS/SPONSORSHIPS--EXTENDED THROUGH NOVEMBER 15, 2021:
This year is an especially difficult year fiscally for the Music Department. The transportation costs that have been thrust upon us and the lower enrollment at the school and therefore the music department has put a huge financial strain on us as we try to provide your kids with experienced instructors and a top-notch marching band and ensemble experience. When you watch the video or are there in person, there's no doubting the impact this has on our students' high school experience.
Our Concert Program Sponsorship is open to businesses and families who would like to honor their student in all the concert programs for the year. Parents can support their child or section as well! View one example! Please view/print the CONCERT PROGRAM PATRON ORDER FORM, and share it with anyone who would like to support Titan Music!
The T-shirt Sponsorship was a great success in the pre-pandemic year! Students and parents are STILL wearing the Titan Music T-shirts with sponsors on the back! Be a part of it! Please view/print the T-SHIRT SPONSORSHIP LETTER and the T-SHIRT SPONSORSHIP ORDER FORM, and share it with any company or group that would like advertising year round on a T-shirt!!!
