UPDATES / NEWS

CV losing its feathers...

For all new clothing purchases we will be dropping the feathers from the CV logo. This is following the direction that Chippewa Valley High School is taking. However, you do not need to get new clothing if you have what you want (even if it has feathers on the logo), only new items purchased will exclude the feathers.

MSBOA a sweep!!

For the first time in Mr Hoey's career teaching High School band all of his bands (Concert, Symphonic & Wind Ensemble) got a first division rating. The MSBOA Band festival on Friday (3/15) was a great success for CVHS as the students from each band pulled together and did great performances! Congratulations are owed to all of them for putting on such a terrific set of performances. Now lets see about State finals.  Wind Ensemble is performing  at 9:45pm at Sterling Hts HS on Friday 4/26, and Symphonic is performing at 3:30pm on Saturday 4/27 at Sterling Hts HS. Come cheer them on!

UPDATE: Both bands did an excellant job at State Band Festival! Symphonic Band recieved a Second rating and Wind Ensemble received a First rating. Congratulate them again on such a great effort this year!

July 29 - August 9, 2013.  Join us for another exciting marching band season!

** Coming Events **

We have a lot of events coming up that we need your help in (or at least you need to be aware of...)

 -- 2013-2014 Marching Band Camp - is mandatory for all MB students (including color guard) & is scheduled for July 29-August 9th. Lots of booster support is needed to make it a success, so keep the dates open and consider volunteering for lunch duty!

 -- Fall Tag Day is scheduled between the first and second week of Band Camp. All MB Students are expected to attend and help raise the funds needed for the program to run smoothly.

Still want to see this year's Senior Video?

Join us out at the Chippewa Valley Football Stadium for a BIG PREMIERE on the new CV Scoreboard. Come relax and enjoy a fun evening on the field watching a wonderful recap of our band class of 2013. 
EVERYONE IN THE BAND PROGRAM IS INVITED (parents and families too)!

BE SURE to bring a camp chair so we can all get the best view right out on the field. Snacks will be provided by the boosters. It will be a blast, so SPREAD THE WORD!

This WEDNESDAY, 7pm-9pm
In the case of bad weather, we will move the event into the auditorium!
