LHS LionPride Marching Band Weekly update Sept. 4

Thank you so much to each of our band parent Moms who came and helped with pinning on the red sashes to our uniforms this past week.  They look terrific and it was very impressive with how many you got done in one night.  Huge thanks as well to Mike Sheppard to spear-heading our sound system set-up and for Danny Aguilar's assistance with this project.  Congratulations again to our Band for their exceptional performance at the Colorado State Fair Parade in Pueblo last weekend.  Out of 24 competing Marching Bands, your "Pride of Littleton" Marching Band finished 2nd in the 4A Division and 2nd in the Overall Sweepstakes!!!

For the week of September 5th:

We have a Band Parent meeting scheduled for Tuesday, September 5th at 7pm in the Band Room.  We will be discussing our upcoming Marching Band Competitions, some final work projects that need to be accomplished as well as making final plans for the CBA Metro 5A event that we are hosting here at the LPS Stadium on Tuesday, October 17th.

We also have parent work nights scheduled for Tuesday, Sept. 5 from 5:30pm - 7pm (then everyone can go to the Band Parent Meeting) and Wed. Sept. 6 from 5:30pm - 8:30pm.  We need as many of you to bring an iron as possible, one that has a steam setting.  Also, some ironing boards and extra scissors for trimming fabric would be much appreciated.  If you are able to bring a sewing machine, we have Velcro​ that needs to be sewn onto the fabric as well.  We will be meeting in the band room.  If you have specific questions, please call Nikki Sheeran at 303-591-3202.

The Marching Band has NO evening rehearsals or Saturday commitment this week.  We do have our 2nd Home Football Game on Thursday, Sept. 7th.  Call Time is 5:30pm and we plan on performing Movements 1 and 2 of our show that evening.

Finally, we do have our Restaurant Fundraiser at Rubio's Coastal Grill Restaurant at 111 W. Mineral Ave., Littleton, CO  80120 on Friday, Sept. 8th from 5pm - 8pm.  Here is the flier. Please encourage everyone to come and eat dinner at Rubio's and to support the Band!!!

Thank you All!
